Building a system that would allow us to simplify the exchange of information across the nation would a huge achievement. However, we have been operating without one for so long that we already have several different solutions in place to work around it. At the Civitas Conference, there was a lot of talk about TEFCA and QHINs and what their impact will be on healthcare and interoperability.  What do they mean for healthcare organizations and how will they be participating in them?  When will they be implemented?  Are they replacing current interoperability efforts?  Are they real? We asked a number of experts at the conference to chime in with their thoughts on TEFCA and QHINs.  Huge thanks to Deven McGraw, Head of Data Stewardship and Data Sharing at Invitae, Scott Stuewe, President and CEO at DirectTrust, Kathryn Ayers Wickenhauser, Senior Director of Community Strategy at DirectTrust, Michael Gagnon, Executive Director at HealtHIE Nevada, Allen Abshire, HIT Operations Director at LHCQF, and Selena Williams, Outreach and Engagement Manager at HI-Bridge HIE for taking the time out of your day to come speak to us!
