Description-Abstract	"Across the United States, important work is underway to achieve much-needed reforms in the American health care system. States have taken the lead in developing ambitious, innovative initiatives to drive improvements in health care quality, expand coverage, address disparities, and promote healthier living. Health information technology (HIT) and electronic health information exchange (HIE) are critical tools in these efforts to transform health care in this country. To help states navigate the complexities of developing and using these electronic tools, the National Governors Association Center for Best Practices (NGA Center) created in 2006 the State Alliance for e-Health. The State Alliance, which held its inaugural meeting in January 2007, is a consensus-based, executive-level body of state elected and appointed officials, formed to address the unique role states can play in facilitating adoption of interoperable electronic HIE. It also is intended to be a forum through which stakeholders can work together to identify inter- and intrastate-based HIT policies and best practices and explore solutions to programmatic and legal issues related to the exchange of health information. Support for the State Alliance is provided by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services' Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology under contract #HHSP23320064106EC. The State Alliance is supported by an advisory committee composed of representatives from both the public and private sectors who provide technical expertise on critical issues related to electronic HIE. In its first year, the State Alliance also received recommendations from three taskforces, composed of key stakeholders from the public and private sector, who provided expertise and experience in addressing state-level HIT issues. The taskforces include the Health Information Protection Taskforce, the Health Care Practice Taskforce, and the Health Information Communication and Data Exchange Taskforce. This is the first annual report of the State Alliance for e-Health. It represents an aggregation of testimony, deliberations, research, and other activities undertaken by the State Alliance members to better understand the barriers to and options for facilitating electronic HIE and HIT adoption. The report outlines findings and recommendations from the first year of the State Alliance effort (January 2007 to February 2008). It is intended to spur continued innovation in states to make the vision of an interconnected, efficient, qualitybased health care system a reality for all Americans." - preface
