Additional Education and Useful Information

We participate with the Wisconsin Statewide Health Information Network (WISHIN). WISHIN allows us to share your health information with your doctors and other providers. This helps all of your caregivers work together more easily, make better decisions about your care and reduce mistakes or duplication of tests and procedures.

WISHIN  protects the privacy and security of your records according to HIPAA. Only your caregivers are able to view your health information when they need it to care for you. Logs and other security measures track who has reviewed your records and when they did so.

You can opt out of continued participation in WISHIN. Contact your care team if you want to opt out, and they will help you. WISHIN will confirm your request in writing.
