For Patients



About Us

Through Central PA Connect HIE, a patient’s important health-care information can be made available, in a secure manner, to your physicians and care team members in a matter of seconds. Whether it’s an emergency situation, a routine doctor’s visit, or a planned procedure, Central PA Connect services allow you to arrive for your appointment knowing that your care team already has the critical information needed from your past medical records. This allows for more time focused on addressing your current concerns and less time for you to review all of your medical history with your provider.

Your health information includes: PA Connect Healthcare

With you and your information in the center, Central PA Connect HIE facilitates the exchange of that information between all of your care team members. This means that you will have to fill out fewer forms and you will spend less time repeating information or needing to remember to bring your records along to your health-care visits.
