What does my commitment to an HIE really mean?
0
The necessity to have hospitals and physicians commit to an HIE derives from the Office of the National Coordinator (ONC) under the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (http://healthit.hhs.gov/portal/server.pt/community/healthit_hhs_gov__home/1204).
Therefore, we are obligated to meet these criteria despite the fact that it may feel uncomfortable for many.
