Time 10/04/11 01:15PM-02:30PM
Session Abstract
NCHICA is one of the first 10 organizations in the US to have implemented the Services, Standards and Policies to become a "Participant" in the NwHIN in order to securely exchange health information for patient care. 16-hospitals in Western NC are now able to exchange records with the Asheville VA Medical center to serve more than 30,000 Veterans in that region. NCHICA will be collaborating with MCNC to leverage the significant I2 and other broadband capabilities across the state.
