Workgroups

Workgroups are an important component of the N.C. Health Information Exchange Authority's strategy to gather stakeholder input as we work to help providers meet the state's requirements for connection, as well as develop use cases to promote adoption and use of NC HealthConnex. Below are the current workgroups that have been formed.

Clinical Data User Group 

The Clinical Data User Group focuses on clinical user feedback related to services and data quality. Full participants of NC HealthConnex that make use of bidirectional connections and/or the Clinical Portal are invited to become a part of this workgroup. New members are being welcomed to this group.

Use Case Workgroup 

The Use Case Workgroup (UCW) reviews qualifying applications for new and innovative uses of HIE data and provides the NC HIEA with recommendations for approval/denial and prioritizes requests. The primary purpose of the UCW is to provide expert review of NC HealthConnex use cases that are allowable within the statutory permitted purposes. The committee reviewers will further ensure that the proposed use cases are broadly applicable to the overall healthcare community within the state of North Carolina. For more information or to fill out an application, please email hiea@nc.gov.
