The SBCCDE ceased
operations in 2006, but it spurred the federal government’s
adoption of a plan to establish regional health information
organizations (RHIOs) throughout the United States. Jonah Frohlich, CHCF
senior program officer explained, “Our
experience taught us that these exchanges can improve quality and access
to vital clinical information when and where it is needed. With the
potential for cost reduction, we hope that more clinics and practices in
underserved communities take advantage of open source products.”

collaborate, code share and co-develop software and technology
standards. CollabNet’s secure environment and
software development platform allows projects and project teams to ramp
up in days rather than weeks.
