Implementing tools for providers to access patient data

November 30, 2016

The Nebraska Health Information Initiative (NeHII) has begun implementation of tools that enable providers to seamlessly access patient data in the NeHII repository from within their EHR. This single sign-on function captures user access credentials and the context of the patient record whose record the user is accessing within the EHR. This minimizes the workflow disruption for providers to access NeHII records. In the first month of implementation, 741 users adopted single sign-on and accessed almost 6,000 patient records.
