Why OKSHINE?
The HIE provides the capability to electronically collect, store, and share clinical information among disparate healthcare information systems while maintaining its privacy and security. The HIE facilitates appropriate and secure access to and retrieval of clinical data to provide safe, more timely, efficient, effective, equitable, patient-centered care. The HIE is helpful for connecting with multiple public health authorities to assist in the analyses of population health and the effectiveness of treatments.
OKSHINE connects providers throughout the state through our secure, online network to share patients’ virtual health records. Members include hospitals, ambulatory practices, ancillary services, behavioral health, specialty care providers, emergency medical services, social services organizations, and payers. Through OKSHINE, members track their patients care received outside of their facility to facilitate greater care coordination.
