It was wonderful to participate in the RHTP regional convenings in Cordova and Dillingham over the past couple of weeks. Listening to the discussions around both challenges and potential solutions underscored the need to have a more connected health system while still retaining independence in governance and practice. We are excited to be part of solutions that lie at that intersection!

We’re proud to serve as Alaska’s state-designated Health Information Exchange (HIE) and to partner with the State of Alaska in advancing secure, connected health information sharing across our healthcare system.

This legislation helps modernize Alaska law to better support how healthcare providers securely exchange health information today, helping care teams access the information they are already permitted to use under HIPAA more efficiently and comprehensively.

At healthEconnect Alaska, we remain committed to safeguarding patient information while supporting more coordinated, informed, and effective care for Alaskans across the state.

Alaska legislators approve update for law that allows data sharing between hospitals | Alaska Beacon The original law establishing digital health records in Alaska was enacted in 2009, and state legislators are updating it.
