What is a Health Information Exchange (HIE)?
A Health Information Exchange is a way of sharing your health information among participating doctors’ offices, hospitals, labs, radiology centers, and other health care providers through secure, electronic means. The purpose is so that each of your participating caregivers can have the benefit of the most recent information available from your other participating caregivers when taking care of you.
What can participating in a Health Information Exchange (HIE) do for me?
Virta’s access to your data from a HIE allows us to see a more complete picture of your health, and make more informed treatment decisions. The goal is for you to receive coordinated care more efficiently. Your health care information is available to participating health care providers where and when they need it without delay.
If I choose to, how can I change my participation status in the future?
