Abstract
The state of Massachusetts has significant early experience in planning for and implementing interoperability networks for exchange of clinical and financal data. Members of our evolving data-sharing organizations gained valuable experience that is of potential benefit to others regarding the governance, policies, and technologies underpinning regional health information organizations. We describe the history, roles, and evolution of organizations and their plans for and success with pilot projects.Keywords
