Vale-U-Health RHIO and EHR Participants

About Us

The Vale-U-Health RHIO is a not-for-profit, public charity that was established in 2007 to develop and maintain a secure regional health information exchange system that enables Pennsylvania health care providers and patients access to both current and historical medical information at the point-of-care.

Health outcomes are greatly enhanced through community wide order sets, disease state tracking and management and the deployment of a comprehensive Continuity of Care Document that is exchanged among participating providers.

What is a RHIO?

RHIO which is the acronym for Regional Health Information Organization is a group of healthcare providers that agree to share an electronic version of a patient’s medical record over a secured Electronic Health Exchange (eHX).

All HIPAA privacy and security guidelines are strictly adhered to including patient consent regarding any information shared.

A Continuity of Care Document is passed to all RHIO participating providers which includes a comprehensive patient history including diagnostic testing and pharmaceutical data.
