Information

This session is part of the Public Health Data Modernization Preconference Forum and additional registration is required.

Timely, trusted data exchange between public health and healthcare is critical to improving population health, supporting public health response, and reducing burden on providers. Yet operational, technical, and governance challenges continue to slow progress.

This panel brings together individuals from a national HIE-focused organization, and a HIE, local public health agency, and health system, all from Nevada, the HIMSS26 host state. Panelists will discuss how partnerships are evolving, where HIEs and HDUs add the most value, and what it takes to move from episodic reporting to sustained, actionable data sharing that serves both public health and clinical care.
