Cal eConnect Information

Cal eConnect is a California-based nonprofit created to guide the private and secure delivery of electronic health information when and where it is needed. We are working with key stakeholders across the state to establish policies, procedures, and services that support the appropriate, private, and secure exchange of electronic health information between clinicians, hospitals, health plans, patients, and government agencies such as public health and Medi-Cal for the purposes of improving health care safety, quality, access, and efficiency. Through a four-year cooperative agreement between Cal eConnect, the California Health and Human Services Agency (CHHS), and the federal Office of the National Coordinator (ONC), we will utilize $38.8 million in American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) funds to enable electronic HIE across the state of California.
