Greater Houston Healthconnect

GHH developed and implemented an electronic health information exchange. Health-connect creates a robust network with broad geographic coverage of 24 counties in South East Texas. Through this protected network, authorized participants can access important patient health information for enhanced safety, quality and efficiency of care. Existing hospital system networks connect with each other and independent providers to create a network of networks. Everyone in the connected community benefits from improved continuity of care and lower costs.

GHH provides services to the City of Houston to implement the Emergency Telehealth and Navigation Program ("ETHAN") that allows the Houston Fire Department to triage low acuity patients and to connect them with primary care resources and alternative transportation options. ETHAN primarily serves uninsured patients.
