Nearly all hospitals are using electronic health records rather than paper records — a shift that’s happened largely in the past 15 or so years. While the information is collected and stored, hospitals struggle to communicate with one another and rarely is the health data available to the patients themselves. 

Two local companies and a local nonprofit are looking to put patient data to work, making it more clear and shareable, with the ultimate goal of preventing patient deaths.
