Public Health Data Exchange Through Health Information Exchange Organizations: National Survey Study

The COVID-19 pandemic revealed major gaps in public health agencies’ (PHAs’) data and reporting infrastructure, which limited the ability of public health officials to conduct disease surveillance, particularly among racial or ethnic minorities disproportionally affected by the pandemic. Leveraging existing health information exchange organizations (HIOs) is one possible mechanism to close these technical gaps, as HIOs facilitate health information sharing across organizational boundaries.
