About us
We’re on a mission to eliminate the fax machine.
Time spent faxing health records is time better spent caring for patients. Lewis and Clark Information Exchange (LACIE) is a leader in healthcare interoperability, providing a secure platform for the seamless exchange of patient information. As the first Health Information Exchange (HIE) to share data in both Kansas and Missouri, LACIE has consistently led the charge in enhancing data sharing capabilities to support healthcare providers, payers, community organizations, and patients.
Since going live in 2010, LACIE has been a trusted partner in enabling interconnectivity across the healthcare landscape. With a strategic focus on the greater Kansas City region, LACIE’s mission is to broaden access to medical records, ensuring that healthcare providers can make informed, timely decisions.
By providing connectivity and the data you need when you need it, we reduce costs and enhance patient care efficiency. Our cost-saving, patient-centered approach gives our participants a competitive advantage while ensuring better outcomes for their patients.
As a 501(c)3 nonprofit, LACIE’s approach is centered around community impact rather than profit. We focus on fostering partnerships that prioritize better health outcomes. Our participant-driven governance ensures our strategies and services align with the needs of the healthcare community, making us a trusted partner committed to the long-term success of the organizations we serve. From helping reduce costs to improving patient care, LACIE’s secure exchange of data empowers healthcare organizations to deliver better, faster, and more informed care.
