December 2013 Chats on Change: Creating a Successful Health Information Exchange Thank you for participating in the December 3 TweetChat, Chats on Change: Creating a Successful Health Information Exchange with Randy Farmer, Chief Operating Officer for the Delaware Health Information Network (DHIN). A transcript of the event will be available soon.
The Delaware Health Information Network (DHIN) was created by the Delaware General Assembly in 1997 as a public–private partnership for the benefit of all citizens of Delaware, to establish a statewide health information network and address Delaware's needs for timely, reliable, and relevant health care information. In 2005, DHIN received funding from the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) as one of six AHRQ-sponsored State and Regional health information exchange (HIE) demonstration projects. The network went live in May 2007, becoming the first statewide health information exchange in the Nation.
During the last 2 years, DHIN has accomplished several health information exchange "firsts," including being the first to enroll 100 percent of acute care hospitals in the State; the first to enroll out-of-state hospitals to participate in the State’s health information exchange; and the first to achieve full financial self-sustainability. With all of Delaware acute care hospitals and nearly 100 percent of providers now participating, DHIN is sharing real-time clinical information to improve patient outcomes, eliminating the duplication of service and reducing the cost of health care.
