The 21st Century Cures Act Final Rule aims to curb any interference with electronic health information. Despite this, some hospitals still report possible instances of information blocking.
After the initial enforcement of information blocking rules in April 2021, a considerable 42 percent of hospitals still reported observing what they perceived as information blocking.
They reported that different entities, such as healthcare providers, health information networks or exchanges, and health IT developers of certified health IT, may have been engaging in these practices.
These findings were drawn from a recent study published in the Journal of the American Medical Informatics Association (JAMIA), which used American Hospital Association survey data conducted between April and September 2021.
