KC CareLink is a regional non-profit collaborative whose mission is, through the use of information technology and the secure exchange of health information, to ensure that providers across health care safety net organizations can better coordinate and deliver health care to patients that they jointly serve.

Our role is to:

• Incrementally build and operate a regional information exchange for safety net providers to communicate;
• Implement additional data exchange projects that build on the KC CareLink technology foundation and expand the utility and feasibility of the network; and
• Collaborate with other regional and national data exchange efforts to work toward common goals and shared learning.

KC CareLink has over five years of success in developing and operating an information sharing network connecting diverse health care safety net organizations. This has been achieved using a highly collaborative process where the participating organizations contribute knowledge and expertise to technical, functional, relationship, process and policy issues inherent in the endeavor.
