I’ll need to figure out how to be in two places at once (might be there only the second half of poster session) but looking forward to presenting our #AMIA2025 poster on behalf of NC HealthConnex (NC’s statewide #HIE) describing our work to transition to a health data utility- #HDU

Enjoying #Civitas2025 but confused on one point- what's the difference between a #CIE and #SHIE?
Relatedly- I have a theory about how those concepts relate to #HDU, but would be interested to hear others' take on it!

Also some important and compelling business data on the #GDP of immigrant #LatinX workers in the US, especially in CA. Does not bode well for econimic outcomes of the current adminstration's policies and mass #deportation of hard-working people with strong work ethic.
