Enabling patient access to health data for actionable results

The Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ONC) and CMS are hosting a virtual event focused on patient access to health data on Wednesday, Oct. 18, 12-5 p.m. The event will bring together patients, providers, payers, and health IT developers to discuss how HHS policies are working in practice and how to maximize the impact of these policies. The event will also highlight educational tools and resources, such as patient-facing apps that enable the availability of patient information and make that health information easier to understand.  A Registration link to this virtual event can be found here.  If you are interested in sharing a patient experience with accessing and using patient data, please use the Health IT Inquiry and Feedback Portal at https://www.healthit.gov/feedback.
