About the San Diego Beacon Community

The San Diego Beacon Community (SDBC) is one of 17 Beacon Communities building and strengthening local health IT infrastructure and testing innovative approaches to make measurable improvements in health, care and cost. Funded by the Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology, SDBC is working to improve the quality of health care delivered for all San Diegans by using health information technology as it pursues five objectives: build a health information exchange (Exchange) that will link health care providers electronically, improve care for emergency cardiac patients, improve childhood immunization rates, and reduce unnecessary hospital readmissions and radiology tests.

Physicians, patients and other San Diegans interested in learning more about the San Diego Beacon Community project and how to participate in the health information exchange are encouraged to visit http://www.SanDiegoBeacon.org for more information.
