New York’s well-established Health Information Network (HIN) and Health Provider Network (HPN) provide for a rapid electronic interchange of information among public health officials at all levels, hospitals and health care providers. In addition, through a contract with the Medical Society of the State of New York (MSSNY), the State Health Department is compiling an electronic database listing thousands of physician-volunteers who could respond to a health emergency.
