Health Information Exchange

Cleveland Clinic currently participates in health information exchanges (HIE’s), which ultimately help enhance the quality of your care.

The goal of the HIE’s is to help participating physicians and providers give better, more efficient care to their patients by the sharing of health information across secure systems. This means that wherever a patient goes, the patient’s health information may be available to all doctors who use the HIE’s, which helps to provide safer, more coordinated patient care.

Cleveland Clinic currently utilizes Care Everywhere, eHealth Exchange and Clinisync to access and share your health information with other participants of these HIE’s for treatment purposes and for payment of treatment services. These HIE’s allow any health information organization that participates in the HIE’s to have secure electronic access to patients’ records.

You may opt out of the health information exchanges by doing one of the following:

  1. Click on the link to fill out the form to opt-out: Care Everywhere Opt Out Form

OR

  1. Mail your written request, signed, and dated to the Cleveland Clinic Office of Corporate Compliance and Business Ethics, 6801 Brecksville Rd, RK-50, Independence, OH 44131

Requesting patients should include all the following information with your written request so we can be sure to identify the correct medical information to opt-out from all the Health Information Exchanges that Cleveland Clinic participates in:

  1. First and last name (and middle name, if applicable)
  2. Cleveland Clinic medical record number
  3. Date of birth
  4. Address
  5. Phone Number

An unencrypted email means there is a risk that the information in the email and any attachments could potentially be read by a third party when it is sent through the internet.
