OneHealthPort was created by a coalition of health plans, physicians and hospitals that joined together to build a trusted community where business and clinical information could be shared securely and simply. Their goal: to improve all parties' efficiency and effectiveness by applying collaborative information technology solutions. The consortium of founders includes The Everett Clinic, First Choice Health Network, Group Health Cooperative, Premera Blue Cross, Regence BlueShield, The Sisters of Providence and Swedish Hospital.

OneHealthPort offers healthcare professionals an easy and secure way to access the provider sites of major local health plans, hospitals and other valuable online service. Rather than placing time-consuming phone calls or logging into several different web sites, OneHealthPort users can gain access to information from all participating organizations using one common security solution. Subscribers register only once and are issued a single digital ID that provides single sign on across all participating sites. In addition, all parties within the trusted community enter into a common contractual framework that addresses HIPAA requirements and other information sharing issues. Finally, OneHealthPort serves as a single source of training and promotion to get online services adopted and drive usage.
