WNC Data Link, a regional health information exchange in North Carolina, ended operations in September.
The exchange can trace its roots to 1995, when a group of providers came together with the goal of improving collaboration between local health systems. This year the exchange connected 17 hospitals.
WNC Data Link officials encourage hospitals and other providers that were part of the exchange to join another HIE, such as Carolinas Care Connect, Mission Health Connect or North Carolina Health Information Exchange.
