Your Health Information . . . At Your Doctor's Fingertips

To give you the safest, best care, your doctor usually needs a lot of information: your medical history, allergies, prescriptions, specialist visits, lab tests and more. The Healthcare Information Xchange of New York (HIXNY pronounced HIX-KNEE) is an easy way for your doctors to get this information.

HIXNY has created a secure, electronic service for exchanging health information among hospitals and doctors in the Capital Region. This service allows your doctor to view and share information like medication history, allergies, and test results. It also lets doctors write prescriptions online and send them to your pharmacy.

The benefits of having accurate, up-to-date information include fewer repeated tests, reduced risk of mistakes, easier second opinions, and less chance of drug interactions.
