Northern Michigan HIE: Organized by the North Central Council of the Michigan Health
and Hospital Association, the Northern Michigan HIE received a planning grant in 2007 to
cover the 21 counties of Michigan’s northern Lower Peninsula.
Southeast Michigan HIE: The Southeast Michigan HIE (SEMHIE) planning grant was
awarded in 2007 and is focused on five counties in the southeast Michigan area, which
includes the greater Detroit area. This initiative is called SEMHIE. In February of 2010,
SEMHIE received a $3 million grant from the Social Security Administration to accelerate the
disability claims process using the National Health Information Network.
Southwest Michigan HIE: The Southwest Michigan HIE (SWMHIE) is facilitated by
ChangeScape Inc.; it received a MiHIN planning grant in 2008. This initiative focuses on a
five-county region that that borders Indiana.
West Michigan HIE: The MiHIN Planning grant for this 12-county region on Michigan’s west
side was awarded to the Alliance for Health in 2007.
Along with the seven HIE planning grants, MDCH awarded grants to two organizations in 2007
to implement HIEs. Described below, each organization was able to build a sustainable
business plan, select an HIE vendor, and begin exchanging data among regional stakeholders.
Capital Area RHIO: Capital Area Regional Health Information Organization (Capital Area
RHIO)—a coalition of public and private community members, including physicians, health
systems, businesses, health plans, and academic institutions from the Clinton, Eaton, and
Ingham tri-county area of mid-Michigan—has selected Axolotl Corp. of San Jose to deploy
its RHIO and has begun implementation with data being exchanged in the initial phase.
Upper Peninsula Health Care Network: The Upper Peninsula Health Care Network
(UPHCN) serves the 319,000 residents of Michigan's Upper Peninsula. Collaborative efforts
among the network include sponsorship of the Upper Peninsula Poison Crisis Network, joint
purchasing, mobile MRI services, education, publication of the physician directory, the U.P.
Medical Library Consortium; the U.P. Teleradiology, Teleconferencing and Telemedicine
Networks; and a reference lab network. The UPHCN continues to develop the Upper
Peninsula–wide integrated information systems network to connect the U.P. hospitals,
providing a cost-effective mechanism to access patient information and streamline patient
care delivery.
Other community organizations have engaged in efforts to build sub-state HIEs. There are six
community initiatives that are implementing key functions including e-prescribing, laboratory
ordering and results delivery, prescription fill status and medication fill history, clinical care
coordination, and quality reporting.
A3HIE : The Ann Arbor Area HIE (A3HIE), serving the greater Ann Arbor area, comprises
220 physicians and 50 physician assistants from four primary care and specialty practices
caring for more than 800,000 active patients. Currently, the practices share the following
patient information: demographics, medications, allergies and current problems, and
diagnoses lists. Physicians enter information into their practice’s electronic medical record
systems, and relevant details are "pushed" to the central data repository, where other
partners can access and import them securely. There are more than 400,000 patient
records in the repository.
Jackson Community Medical Record (JCMR): JCMR is a joint venture of Allegiance
Health and the Jackson Physicians Alliance. It was formed to improve the quality of patient
care through IT and lower the total cost of ownership of an EHR system. JCMR currently
connects 140 Jackson county physicians, who represent more than 80,000 patients.
