The HIE will be a statewide expansion of the Mississippi Coastal Health Information Exchange, a proof-of-concept pilot program established after Hurricane Katrina to provide a medical information system across six hard-hit counties.
Tampa, Fla.-based Hielix provided consulting services to assist the state in developing the statewide plan.
