E-Health Network of Long Island is a Regional Health Information Organization (RHIO). A RHIO is a not-for-profit organization made up of health providers in a region. By using technology to store, protect, and see patient health information, the goals are to:

• provide better healthcare
• improve the safety of healthcare
• protect the privacy of patients
• lower costs

Who is in Charge of Your Vital Health Information?
If you are like most people, you receive healthcare services in more than one place. Information about these services is kept separately in each doctor’s office, specialist practice, lab, and hospital. Getting the information takes time. If your doctors could access it quickly, it could help them make better informed decisions about your care.

The Health and Well Being of Your Family is Your First Concern
Patients want their doctors to have the information they need to make the best decisions about their healthcare. They want this especially in an emergency.

• A nationwide study* found that information technology in healthcare is outdated.

• Doctors are not able to get patient information when they need it.

• It causes patients to become upset, and leads to high costs, and needless errors.

Our Community is Uniting for Better healthcare
Across the country, RHIOs like e-Health Network of Long Island are working to change this. They make it possible for doctors to get the health information they need, where and when they need it.
