Why Trust in Health Data Starts Locally

New from Civitas and CSRI: a timely perspective on what it takes to build trustworthy health data sharing at scale. This blog explores why locally governed networks like HIEs—and their evolution into Health Data Utilities (HDUs)—are essential trust infrastructure, and how they work alongside national frameworks like TEFCA. As interoperability expands, the piece outlines a clear takeaway: local accountability is critical to ensuring data is used responsibly, securely, and effectively across the health ecosystem.
