About us
The San Diego Regional Healthcare Information Exchange (San Diego Beacon) is a partnership of health care providers, clinics, hospitals, emergency medical services and public health organizations. The quality of health care in San Diego is high, but we can always improve it—and we can make it more affordable. San Diego Health Connect exists to improve the quality and cost of our health care system. We believe that community-wide health information exchange is the foundation for quality and cost improvement. When every individual’s protected health information is securely available to their doctors when and where they need it: • Doctors can provide better, more informed care. • Duplication of tests and procedures decreases. • Costs go down. San Diego Health Connect securely connects hospitals, health systems, patients, private health information exchanges (HIEs) and other health care stakeholders—so that they can share important health information. As a not-for-profit organization, our sole purpose is to serve every member of the community and improve health care for everyone. We are the health information utility that unifies the San Diego health care ecosystem.We deliver an infrastructure for health information exchange that spans the entire community—across organizational boundaries and technology vendors. Since no individual visits one health system or doctor to receive 100 percent of their care, our community needs a utility like San Diego Health Connect that connects all providers and HIEs. That way, every patient’s vital health information is available to their doctors—no matter where they receive care.
