Which statement best describes Care Everywhere's data-sharing scope?

• A. Secure, interoperable exchange of patient health information between Epic sites and external healthcare organizations.
• B. Exchange of only billing information.
• C. Private sharing within a single site with no external access.
• D. Exchange of imaging studies only.

Answer: (A)

Care Everywhere is about securely sharing patient health information in a way that different organizations can understand and use, across both Epic sites and external healthcare partners. It supports a wide range of clinical data, not just a single type, so clinicians can see a complete picture of a patient when patients move between care settings. This makes the statement describing a secure, interoperable exchange of patient health information between Epic sites and external healthcare organizations the best fit. The other options are too narrow: billing data is only a small part of what’s shared; sharing inside one site with no external access isn’t true to Care Everywhere’s purpose; and imaging alone doesn’t reflect the full breadth of data that can be exchanged.
