CurrentCare: Sharing Your Health Information
CurrentCare is Rhode Island’s Health Information Exchange (HIE). It helps your doctors and other healthcare providers safely share important information about your health.
You can think of CurrentCare as a secure online filing cabinet for your health records. It is private, protected by law, and helps save time for you and your care team.
Your Choices
- If you want your CurrentCare health record shared with doctors who treat you, you do not need to do anything.
- If you do not want your health information shared, you may choose to opt out by completing a CurrentCare Opt‑Out Form.
Important Exceptions Required by Rhode Island Law
Even if you choose to opt out, Rhode Island law allows limited access to health information in the following situations:
- Public health reporting, such as reporting infectious diseases to public health officials
- Temporary access to health information during a medical emergency
- Health plan access when information is needed for care management, quality improvement, or performance reporting
About the Opt‑Out Form
You only need to complete the CurrentCare Opt‑Out Form once. You do not need to fill out a form for each doctor or medical facility. You may choose to opt back in at any time.
