SacValley MedShare QHIO provides Health Information Exchange (HIE) services to facilitate the secure exchange of health and social services information between participants so that our participants can provide the most informed whole person care available to their patients.
SacValley MedShare was awarded Qualified Health Information Organization (QHIO) status in October 2023. As a California QHIO, SVMS can support your organization in meeting the mandated DxF data exchange requirements. We use best-in-class practices and cloud services to send and receive transactions, locate patient records based on demographic data, translate health data to conform with industry-standard terminologies, apply security measures, and more.
Most healthcare organizations are closed on evenings, weekends, and holidays. SacValley MedShare allows doctors to access information 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Many northern Californians travel large distances for specialized care far away from their primary care and medical records. Patients have better outcomes when specialists and primary care physicians communicate. Sharing test results, coordinating care, and providing timely feedback improves the quality of care.

Join our Qualified Health Information Organization (QHIO) today. We are a designated QHIO under CalHHS Center for Data Insights and Innovation that can help healthcare entities in California comply with the CalHHS Data Exchange Framework, which will be mandated starting January 31, 2024.
“Long before HIE was seen as vital and something to mandate, a group of visionaries focused on patient care saw the need for clinics and hospitals to share patient information. The idea was simple: one never knows when a patient will travel outside their home’s network of doctors and caregivers, so we must be ready when they do. This need is most acute in rural areas where medical conditions often require transfers. Those visionary caregivers started small, with a few hospitals and clinics, and built a solid foundation for providing doctors with the information they need at the bedside. The concept was so sound that other caregivers saw the need and were eager to join. Today, SVMS is one of California’s largest HIEs and includes not only hospitals and clinics but also counties, independent physicians, labs, imaging centers, health plans, ambulance companies, and counties. Thankfully, the core value of focusing on patient care remains the same. SVMS is now big, growing, and well-positioned to improve the lives of millions of people..”
