Patient FAQs
-
Is my healthcare information secure or is it sitting "out on the internet" for everyone to see?
Your healthcare information is highly-secure. In fact, it's much more secure being shared over OnePartner HIE than it would be if were being sent by mail or by fax.
With OnePartner HIE, we're able to provide you and your primary care provider complete control over who you allow to access your health information. Further, OnePartner HIE allows you and your provider to review audit reports of each healthcare provider who has accessed your records. If your health information were stored in a paper chart in the back room of an office, you'd never have any record as to who is accessing your information.
-
How does my participation in OnePartner HIE benefit me?
Have you ever had difficulty telling your provider the name of a test or a recent medication another doctor prescribes? Have you or a loved one ever been rushed to the emergency room and unable to respond to questions from a nurse or physician such as, "Are you allergic to any medications?" By participating in OnePartner HIE, your healthcare provider has access to all of the information needed to make important and sometimes, life-defining decisions.
Your participation is allowing your healthcare provider to have all the necessary tools and information at their fingertips to better care for you.
-
I would prefer that my information not be shared over OnePartner HIE. What do I do?
We encourage you to talk with your primary care provider about the benefits of your participation in OnePartner HIE. If you decide that you would like to "opt out" of participation, your provider will be able to assist you.
