Telehealth
HCA supports the use of telehealth during the COVID-19 pandemic to help clients and providers stay connected. Contact HCA if you are a provider in need of:
- Teleconferencing licenses
- Loaner laptops
HCA is distributing Zoom free of charge to providers who have a meaningful need for this platform to support continuity of care and who don’t already have access to telehealth technology.
HCA is distributing several hundred loaner laptops to providers to help clients and providers stay connected through online appointments.
HCA is also supporting the Behavioral Health Institute (BHI) to provide training and technical assistance to behavioral health providers to support their use of telehealth.
How to get CDR access
For new subscribers, and until further notice, OneHealthPort is waiving the HIE participant annual subscription fee for one year to view patient data through the CDR web portal. Use of other HIE services during this period voids the offer. Please contact OneHealthPort for complete details.
The CDR web portal
The CDR web portal is available for viewing by all licensed professionals. This includes physical and behavioral health providers and their delegates.
- All organizations viewing CDR data must be a HIPAA covered entity and have a HIE participation agreement with OneHealthPort.
- Only staff with a need to view individual client-level data may access the CDR. (As determined by their manager and configured by their internal IT access staff.) This is similar to how your organization grants electronic health records access.
- Users can complete training in one hour or less. Organizations using the CDR will not incur training costs from OneHealthPort or HCA. Reference materials are available on OneHealthPort’s website.
CDR “101”
As always, please contact us about presenting an overview of the CDR to your virtual gathering of healthcare industry professionals at healthit@hca.wa.gov.
