Sample Text for Promotion
New resource for Minnesota healthcare providers on health information exchange (HIE) now available on the MN e-Health website, http://www.health.state.mn.us/e-health/hie.html. This HIE guidance will be updated and added to over the next few months; it will be a source of current and accurate information for providers. The information can help providers assess their readiness for HIE and better understand the HIE options available in Minnesota.
