History
Inception
The Indiana Health Information Exchange (IHIE) was one of the earliest existing Health Information Exchanges (HIEs). It was formed in 1996 with the alliance of the five largest hospital groups in Indianapolis and initially created as the Indiana Network for Patient Care (INPC), a data sharing collaborative that at its formation primarily focused on patient seen in the emergency departments (EDs) of the hospitals in each of the hospital groups. The INPC was originally created and supported by the Regenstrief Institute.
Departure from Regenstrief
In 2004, IHIE was officially incorporated as a non-profit organization separate from Regenstrief. While the two organizations freely share data and software, the ongoing maintenance of the INPC and its related services falls to IHIE.
