​​KHIE has successfully connected to the national eHealth Exchange! ​

KHIE Participants now have access to clinical information from connections made through the national eHealth Exchange. UK Healthcare, St. Elizabeth Healthcare, the University of Louisville Physicians, and Baptist Healthcare are contributing data and/or querying KHIE for health information!  ​

The connection to the national eHealth Exchange not only enables KHIE to share healthcare information from some of the Commonwealth's Provider and Hospital Organizations but from other healthcare organizations located outside of Kentucky in bordering states as well as from specific healthcare organizations that we know are important to you, such as the University of Cincinnati Health.   Stay tuned as we continue to make additional connections.

As always with KHIE, there are no fees associated with this benefit AND you can have access to this bonus health information without the cost of making a technical connection directly to the national eHealth Exchange.  We are excited to make this additional health information available to you as we continue to build a robust health information exchange!

Thanks to all who attended this year's eHealth Summit 2021!  You made it a success.  We are confident it was rewarding and informative.  We are grateful to be your Kentucky Health Information Exchange! 

We welcomed healthcare professionals from across the Commonwealth who heard stimulating discussions from some of Kentucky's most knowledgeable Health IT leaders.  The Summit hosted breakout sessions that spotlighted KHIE's newest services, discussed post-pandemic challenges, and touted some of the Cabinet's latest initatives.  

In addition to thanking the attendees, we want to thank all of the speakers, sponsors, and exhibitors!  This event isn't possible without your expertise, support, and generosity.  

The presentations were recorded and will be available here next week.
