HealthShare Exchange

HealthShare Exchange was formed as a collaboration among major healthcare stakeholders, including health plans and the acute care hospitals across the five-county region of Bucks, Chester, Delaware, Montgomery, and Philadelphia counties to enable the electronic exchange of patient information to improve patient outcomes and to manage and lower healthcare costs in the Southeastern Pennsylvania region. HealthShare Exchange presents one of the most significant opportunities for the Commonwealth to utilize Health Information Exchange (HIE) to produce meaningful benefits for the healthcare system. Due to the sheer size of the market, dollars invested in regional health information exchange in Southeastern Pennsylvania have the potential for significantly greater ROI than in other regions of Pennsylvania.
