Clinical messaging services

Clinical messaging services: "The DOCS4DOCS® service is an independent, community-based clinical messaging service. It electronically delivers test results and other clinical information securely and efficiently. Approximately 7,200 physicians send approximately one million messages each month.

IHIE continues to expand its network and is working with many other hospitals throughout Indiana to implement the DOCS4DOCS® service.

Because of the wide-spread use of DOCS4DOCS® service throughout Indiana, IHIE has been recognized by the U.S. Surgeon General and the U.S. Health & Human Services as one of the nation's most respected health information exchanges."

Ideally, these test results should become a part of the patient's PHR !
