Partnership puts consumers in control of their
health information by aggregating and making health records
available from across the New York
health care community at www.MyHealthRecordNY.com
NEW
YORK, Dec. 13, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Healthix,
one of the largest public Health Information Exchanges (HIE) in the
nation which serves the greater southern New York region, and CLEAR (NYSE: YOU), the
secure identity company, today announced they have launched
Individual Access Services to empower consumers with free, easy and
secure access to their healthcare data from more than 8,000 health
facilities across New York State
in a single portal.
Healthix has also engaged its New York
State HIE colleague, Hixny, to provide the patient portal
technology which embeds CLEAR's identity verification technology to
seamlessly verify a consumer's identity and provide them with
secure and easy access to their health information. The partnership
enables interoperability between health systems and health
organizations across New York
State, allowing patients to access their health records by
simply verifying their identity with a selfie, and finding their
aggregated records in a single portal. The partnership also
relieves New York State healthcare
providers from the process of manually generating temporary
passcodes for each patient to retrieve their health records.
Friction-free, trustworthy identity verification and user
authentication will empower New
York citizens and individuals who have received healthcare
in the southern New York region,
including New York City and
Long Island (served by Healthix),
and eastern New York (served by
Hixny) to easily and securely access their medical records and
share them with authorized healthcare providers.
"Today, Healthix joins many of our partner healthcare
organizations in empowering New
York residents by granting them direct access to their
medical information, promoting transparency and encouraging them to
actively engage in their healthcare activities," says
Todd Rogow, President & CEO of
Healthix. "Our launch of My Health Record NY supports
our organization's mission of mobilizing health information across
our community to advance patient care and opens up medical
information going back for over a decade."
"Through this partnership, we're not only helping to empower New
Yorkers with access to their medical records, but we're also saving
providers time and empowering them to do what they do best –
provide world-class care and save lives," said Caryn Seidman Becker, CEO of CLEAR.
To seamlessly access your New York
State health records on Healthix and Hixny with CLEAR, visit
https://www.MyHealthRecordNY.com and enter your New York State zip code or the zip code of a
New York healthcare facility where
you've received care. First-time users will be prompted to verify

selfie to verify their identity. Users will be verified at the IAL2
assurance level in compliance with National Institute of Standards
and Technology standards.
Healthix, Hixny, and CLEAR are committed to protecting patient
privacy. Each HIE platform is HITRUST certified and uses innovative
security measures to safeguard data and prevent anyone except the
patient and their authorized provider(s) from accessing their
health information. With this partnership, consumers of
New York State health systems
served by Healthix and Hixny can look forward to a seamless and
secure healthcare experience and feel empowered to be active
participants in their own care.
With nearly 700 New York-based employees, a presence at four
New York airports and three
New York entertainment venues,
CLEAR brings its trusted consumer brand, embedded user base of
nearly 19 million Members who can simply verify their identity with
just a selfie, and experience working in other highly regulated
industries such as airline security and financial services to
healthcare.
