Today I got an email that was asking for some online resources about Health Information Exchanges (HIE). As I thought about it, I couldn’t really think of many HIE resources out there. I’ve certainly written a number of times about HIE on EMR and HIPAA and HIE on EMR and EHR. However, it’s far from a topic that I’ve covered in depth. In fact, I’d say that HIE is usually a secondary topic on a post as opposed to my primary topic on those blogs. Maybe I should change that.
I did point the person that asked to the Healthcare Standards blog which I think is probably the blog most dedicated to HIE that I know of. They’ve been doing it for a long time since they still say that they’re writing about RHIO.
I also pointed them to John Moore of Chilmark Research who occasionally writes about HIE as well. Although, he also covers PHR and EMR.
Are there any other great resources and bloggers about HIE?
