Overview
Mission
To enable support and promote whole-person care in the district of columbia and the region by appropriately and securely sharing data to facilitate efficient care and improve health outcomes.
What it reported doing in 2024
Health information exchange (hie) crisp dc continues to focus on the exchange. Since build-out of the exchange, crisp dc's hie has allowed providers practicing at one location to instantly access patients' records, test results, and other important information even if that information is physically stored miles away in several unrelated locations. A brief description of the hie concept is as follows: while physician access is improved by an hie, so is the security of patients' medical information. Secure electronic transmission of medical data ensures that it reaches the intended recipient and only the intended recipient.the instantaneous access and improved security offered by a hie is made possible by the high-speed computer networking hardware used to connect all participating health care facilities and identify the location of patient records within those participating facilities. Increased availability and security of patient information reduces errors, improves paitent care, and lowers health care costs.
