CONNECT is a health informatics "software solution that organizations can use to securely link their existing health IT systems into the health information exchanges."[2]

Product history

In June 2007, CONNECT initiative lead Dave Riley was brought in by the The Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ONC) to bring the Federal agencies together to be able to formulate a strategy for how the Feds would be connecting to the NHIN"[3][4] (The Nationwide Health Information Network). Between June and October of that year, Riley and the Federal agencies worked out a strategy that would include a Federal NHIN consortium that would operate under shared governance and development with non-shared implementations in each agency. In addition, they would create Federal nationwide health information exchange (NHIE) solutions. On October 12, 2007, Riley and the agencies met with the National Coordinator and ultimately agreed to pool money together to fund development of the software initiative.[3][4][5]
