Health Information Exchange: Navigating and Managing a Network of Health Information Systems, now in fully updated second edition, is a practical guide to understand how to manage and make use of a health information exchange infrastructure, which moves patient-centered information within the health care system. The book informs and guides the development of new infrastructures as well as the management of existing and expanding infrastructures across the globe.

Whether due to new policies or incentive programs, health care organizations have a need to electronically exchange data and information about patients. However, patient data is scattered across a myriad of electronic health record (EHR) systems, most of which cannot interoperate. This book explores the reasons for the health information exchange (HIE) infrastructures and how to manage them. It examines the key drivers of HIE as well as barriers to their widespread use. It further explains the underlying technologies and methods for conducting HIE across communities as well as nations. In addition, the book explains the principles of governing an organization that chiefly moves protected health information around. The text unravels the complexities of HIE and provides guidance for those who need to access HIE data as well as support HIE operations.
