The Vermont Health Information Exchange, operated by VITL, enables hospitals, physician practices, and other health care providers to send patient clinical and demographic data to each other over a secure network. Labs can use the exchange to send electronic results directly to physician EHRs.

Electronic health records systems (EHRs) allow health care providers to collect and manage information more efficiently than with paper charts. Access to data is faster and confidentiality is enhanced.

Communications with other practitioners and staff members is improved. Patient care is also improved, as practitioners have access to clinical decision support tools and can be alerted to potential issues such as drug interactions.
