The digital health space refers to the integration of technology and health care services to improve the overall quality of health care delivery. It encompasses a wide range of innovative and emerging technologies such as wearables, telehealth, artificial intelligence, mobile health, and electronic health records (EHRs). The digital health space offers numerous benefits such as improved patient outcomes, increased access to health care, reduced costs, and improved communication and collaboration between patients and health care providers. For example, patients can now monitor their vital signs such as blood pressure and glucose levels from home using wearable devices and share the data with their doctors in real-time. Telehealth technology allows patients to consult with their health care providers remotely without having to travel to the hospital, making health care more accessible, particularly in remote or rural areas. Artificial intelligence can be used to analyze vast amounts of patient data to identify patterns, predict outcomes, and provide personalized treatment recommendations. Overall, the digital health space is rapidly evolving, and the integration of technology in health

Trust in the Health Information Exchange Agreements

 

It’s been almost 8 years since I began helping to forge the Inland Empire Health Information Exchange with a small group of HIT visionaries. As you may know forging requires intense hear to  harden the iron. Certainly HIX has  felt this heat.

There has been progress.

This is really a Digital Health Space .

Since that time there have been many changes:

1. The political environment, and the technical environment.

2. Patient expectations, information cannot be siloed. Patients want to carry information with them (Portability)

3. Maturation of Interoperability

4. Development of ‘Trust” for sharing information…at the local level.

5. The idea that HIX is patient centric for their information
