Dennis & Noemi talk with Dr. Ogechika Alozie, Chief Medical Informatics Officer at Texas Tech University Health Science Center in El Paso; and Jennifer Wright, Director of Marketing & Outreach at Paso del Norte Health Information Exchange. All Americans have a right too access their medical records and health information, and we'll hear about the progress being made in El Paso to make it easy and convenient for El Pasoans to access their records. Electronic access can also help avoid uncomfortable or awkward conversations at a doctor's office. Dr. Elozie and Jennifer Wright recommend we make sure our physicians have patient portals that we can access.
