The Legislature finds and declares the following: There is a need to enhance California’s ability to obtain and use federal funding, as awarded in the State Cooperative Grant Agreement for health information exchange, for the establishment of statewide health information exchange infrastructure in California. Health information exchange has the potential to significantly improve the quality of treatment and care, reduce unnecessary health care costs, and increase administrative efficiencies within the health care system. It is the intent of the Legislature to authorize the Office of Health Information Integrity within the California Health and Human Services Agency to establish and administer demonstration projects funded by federal grants and other sources.
