Long Island Patient Information eXchange Improving patient care through secure data accessibility

Provider Portal and HIE

The primary service that LIPIX offers is a Provider Portal which enables clinicians to securely, easily, and comprehensively view relevant clinical information on their patients.  It not only allows clinicians access to information from their own organization, but also enables clinicians, with their patients’ permission, access to clinical information from an extended network of “unrelated” care providing organizations.

In certain emergent clinical situations, this additional information could mean the difference between life and death.  More commonly, use of a clinical data exchange like the one provided by LIPIX has demonstrated a wide range of benefits to a large number of people.

For Patients:

  • Improves the quality of care, as their providers will have rapid access to more of their historical clinical information
  • Reduces the need to provide redundant information during encounters
  • Reduces duplicate testing
For Clinicians:
