Blue Cross Blue Shield of Arizona is playing a leadership role in the Arizona Health-e Connection, an organization working to create a statewide health information exchange (HIE) and encourage health information technology (HIT) adoption.  Recognizing that HIE and HIT can help improve quality and reduce costs, the Arizona Health-e Connection is currently:

  • Serving as an information clearinghouse and providing education and outreach;
  • Promoting the adoption and implementation of interoperability standards;
  • Acting as the rule-setting body for advancing HIT; and
  • Assisting with health information infrastructure support and development.
