Access trusted information about your health records, privacy, and participation in Rhode Island Health Information Exchange. Learn how HIE supports your care, understand your choices, and find the resources you need—all in one place.
The Rhode Island Health Information Exchange (HIE) helps your healthcare providers securely share important health information so you can receive better informed, more coordinated care.
When you visit different doctors, specialists, hospitals, or other healthcare organizations, your medical information may be stored in several different systems. The Rhode Island HIE helps connect that information, giving participating healthcare providers a more complete view of your health history.
The Rhode Island HIE is designed to support your healthcare providers, not replace conversations with you. Your providers may still ask questions about your health history, medications, or recent care to ensure they have the most accurate and up-to-date information.
Your health information belongs to you. We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring your information is shared securely and only as permitted by law. Below, you can learn more about how your information is used and the choices available to you regarding participation in the Rhode Island HIE.
