The move towards electronic health records and effective health data networking is rapidly improving the quality of care by enabling better coordinated and integrated delivery of healthcare services by multiple providers that may be involved in the care of individual patients.  However, concerns over health information confidentiality and digitization of healthcare data are driving healthcare providers to find more effective and compliant ways to share patient information while protecting confidentiality.
