Since 2010, our experts have offered technical assistance to 1100+ providers across the District – helping them improve care coordination and patient outcomes through effective use of health IT.
Effective local care requires close coordination and timely information.
We help DC-based providers connect to the DC HIE so they can easily share patient data – right from their EHR – and access longitudinal health information and quality reporting.
