The Michigan Health Information Network (MiHIN) is the state of Michigan's initiative to improve health care quality, cost, efficiency, and patient safety through electronic exchange of health information. The MiHIN is essential to ensuring that Michigan's health care providers can utilize Electronic Health Records or EHRs in a meaningful way that allows for a patient's health information to be available when they need it most - at the point of care. The MiHIN is fundamentally the infrastructure that mobilizes existing electronic health information in a manner that allows healthcare providers to access and exchange it regardless of individual technology choices. The MiHIN is a joint effort among MDCH, the Michigan Department of Information Technology (MDIT), and a broad group of stakeholders from across the state of Michigan
