  7. GEORGIA HEALTH INFORMATION NETWORK 2. Network Model & Organizational Approach 7

  8. GaHIN Network Model • GaHIN is a Network of Networks Model • Facilitates a Georgia statewide electronic Network connecting everyone – payers, providers, and patients – in the entire healthcare system, thus enabling better communication and collaboration among clinicians. • Keeps operations manageable & costs low – reducing barriers • Allows DCH to leverage federal funding and provide guidance on complex issues to strengthen and advance the network. • GaHIN Is a federated-hybrid model, not a central repository of clinical data • Information remains with the treating provider and only flows when there is authorization. • GaHIN makes an individual data repository available to Members directly connected to the Network 8

  9. GaHIN Organizational Roles • GaHIN ORGANIZATION • Provides policy guidance, core and advanced exchange services benefiting a range of GaHIN members. • Builds the exchange infrastructure and establishes minimum Network participation requirements. • GaHIN MEMBER • Connects directly to Georgia Health Information Network. • Helps organize and manage Member Affiliates. • Enables network connections for their Member Affiliates. • GaHIN MEMBER AFFILIATE • Member Affiliates may be hospitals, physicians, labs, etc. as well as other interested organizations affiliated with a GaHIN Member. • Member Affiliates benefit from the range of services provided by GaHIN. 9
