LaHie Progress Update

During first phase of the project, LaHIE’s steering committee established a foundation for the future by developing:

• Trust 
• Partnerships and agreements;
• Project governance and structure;
• Security and privacy framework;
• Core effectiveness and efficiency measures in clinical settings;
• Potential sources of funding and in-kind contributions; and
• A technology solution and data exchange standards for further validation.

After 18 months of collaboration, LaHIE’s partners are committed to expanding the demonstration beyond its formative stage by leveraging the infrastructure established.

As the second phase begins, the LaHIE steering committee has identified short-term goals for the next year and long-term goals in the next three to five years.

Among the Phase II goals are:

• Formalizing the governance structure;
• Executing of a participant agreement;
• Developing of a sustainable business model;
• Recruiting new publishers; and
• Establishing an independent operating entity.
