There must also be an effective, efficient, and trustworthy mechanism for health information exchange (HIE) to aggregate each patient's scattered records into a complete whole when needed. This mechanism must also be accurate and reliable, protect patient privacy, and ensure that medical record access is transparent and accountable to patients.
