Health Information Exchanges Symposium: HIE in the Trenches - Addressing Today’s Challenges

There are more Health Information Exchanges and Regional Health Information Organizations throughout the country than ever before; but, where are we as an industry with implementation? The HIE symposium will feature views from the federal and state perspectives on the intricate relationship between national and state-level programs and their reciprocal impact on one another. This day-long symposium will closely examine components critical for long term success of HIEs and RHIOs including governance, accountability, policy and technical models for adoption, as well as financial challenges and successes ultimately exploring the progress of HIE and RHIO implementation to date.
