I’m Brian Ahier. I’ve worked in health information technology for more than 25 years, with a focus on health information exchange, interoperability standards, and federal health IT policy.
I’m president of Advanced HIE Resources, a health IT interoperability advisory firm, and I serve on the Board and Executive Committee of The Sequoia Project. I was a founding board member of DirectTrust and founded Gorge Health Connect, a nonprofit health information exchange in Oregon’s Columbia River Gorge.
I’ve been writing here since 2009.
