OptumInsight assists with new Arizona HIE
The Health Information Network of Arizona (HINAz), and health information exchange (HIE) company Axolotl, now OptumInsight, have partnered to create a statewide HIE network in Arizona.
HINAz will implement the Axolotl HIE platform from OptumInsight to build the HIE infrastructure to enable the sharing and exchange of clinical data from all available sources across the state, OptumInsight, of San Jose, Calif., stated.
The Axolotl HIE tool will provide the connection capability across disparate health information systems and physician electronic health records (EHRs), connecting all participating HINAz providers and existing "HIE ecosystems" within Arizona for electronic exchange of patient data. Initially, HINAz's main function will be to provide information to emergency departments and urgent care centers so providers can access the patients' clinical information, the company added.
