"Over the last 20 years, and increasingly in the last decade, a vast health data infrastructure has been built to meet the needs of key stakeholders and most importantly patients and communities. The network of state and regional health information exchanges (HIEs), community information exchanges, all-payer claims databases, regional health improvement collaboratives and emerging health data utilities house immense capabilities and serve as 'the last mile of interoperability.'"
