Health Information Technology - Governance and Support

Since 2014, DCPCA has been responsible for overseeing the implementation, governance and management of the Capital Partners in Care (CPC) Health Information Exchange (HIE), which was initially established with funding from CMS to coordinate healthcare delivery and improve health outcomes for the District’s chronically ill residents.  Under DCPCA leadership, the CPC-HIE has expanded to include 18 participating provider organizations (i.e., FQHCs, independent providers and hospital affiliated ambulatory practices), and in 2020, received recognition as one of two Registered HIE Entities in the District of Columbia. The CPC-HIE now houses clinical encounter and history data for more than 800,000 unique patients.
