Hixny: Your Source for Secure, Real-time Patient Data

The Healthcare Information Exchange of New York (Hixny) is a non-profit, local health information network that supports the secure flow of electronic health information through the Statewide Health Information Network for New York (SHIN-NY), which is overseen by the New York State Department of Health. It was established to help improve patient outcomes, reduce or eliminate unnecessary or duplicative tests and procedures, and lower the cost of care. 

Is Hixny secure?
