“I do not see a long-term future for Regional Health Information Organizations (RHIOs). There is no compelling reason for most healthcare practices to participate in an RHIO and in many cases, such participation may compromise a provider’s competitive position. Health Information Exchanges (HIEs) on the other hand will see localized success as these are created by providers, in their own self-interest, to share information among their network of partners to facilitate workflow and optimize business processes.”
