The intent of this article is to provide public health and health information exchanges (HIEs) insight into activities and processes for connecting public health with clinical care through HIEs. In 2007 the CDC issued a Request for Proposal (RFP) for the "Situational Awareness through Health Information Exchange" project. The project's goals are to connect public health with health information exchanges (HIEs) to improve public health's real-time understanding of communities' population health and healthcare facility status. This article describes the approach and methodology used by the Northwest Public Health Information Exchange to achieve the project's goals. The experience of the NWPHIE Collaboration provides an organizational and operational roadmap for implementing a successful regional HIE that ensures secure exchange and use of electronic health information between local and state public health and health care entities.
本文旨在为公共卫生和健康信息交换（HIE）提供深入了解通过HIE将公共卫生与临床护理相连接的活动和流程的视角。2007年，美国疾病控制与预防中心（CDC）发布了一份关于“通过健康信息交换实现态势感知”项目的征求建议书（RFP）。该项目的目标是将公共卫生与健康信息交换（HIE）相连接，以提高公共卫生对社区人群健康和医疗设施状况的实时了解。本文描述了西北公共卫生信息交换所采用的实现该项目目标的方法和手段。西北公共卫生信息交换协作组织的经验为实施一个成功的区域HIE提供了组织和运营路线图，确保地方和州公共卫生及医疗保健实体之间安全地交换和使用电子健康信息。
