Regenstrief Institute A new study from U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, Regenstrief Institute, IUPUI and Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai researchers reports that primary care physicians recognize the need for better coordination and welcome health information exchange (HIE) event notifications as a means of improving the flow of information to enable provision of better patient care. Individuals often receive medical care from more than one healthcare system. Care coordination among providers, for example after discharge from an emergency department or hospital in one system, with the patient’s primary care physician in another, is challenging and frequently doesn’t occur. This siloed approach to medical care with incomplete sharing of clinical information, may adversely affect health outcomes.
