Hi @yanghoon You’re wondering if your medical and health data is shared between hospitals in the Mayo Clinic. Yes! It’s streamline within the Mayo information stream.

Mayo uses the EPIC data system which will allow information, with your permission, to be shared with not only Mayo Clinics but world wide to any other medical facility who has the system.

My local healthcare provider and hospital in my hometown has EPIC and all the information from Mayo and my local provider can seen by both parties with just the click of the ‘button’ on the computer screen.

Does this help you?

Hi @loribmt Thanks a lot for your kind and helpful reply. Now I understood that my data as height, medication, medical problems, … are shared between hospitals in Mayo Clinic since they are all connected in Epic system.

However, I am surprised that hospitals not in Mayo Clinic networks can be share my data too, and want to know more about it. Do you mean that I can get consecutive medical service(based on the diagnosis from Mayo Clinic) from other hospitals that use Epic System(Kaiser, MGH, Geisinger, etc.)?

Can you prvide me information or example about the hospitals that are not in Mayo Clinic network but offer data sharing? Or any related websites that I can read about such data interoperability between Mayo Clinic and other IDNs?

Thanks again for your help.
