THSA Seeks Public Comment on State-Level Trust Agreement

The Texas Health Services Authority (THSA), through its Privacy and Security Task Force and Collaboration Council, developed a Texas Health Information Exchange Network (THIEN) Agreement.  The THIEN is an agreement between the THSA, local HIEs, and state agencies to support exchange of health information between HIEs and between HIEs and state agencies in Texas.

A draft version of the THIEN is available here.

Please submit comments to THSA's General Counsel, Jocelyn Dabeau, at jocelyn.dabeau@thsa.org by 5:00 pm Central on Wednesday, November 30.  If you are recommending a change to the THIEN, please include revised language and a justification for the recommended change.
