MiHIN represents a robust network of entities across the continuum of care that are connected by our shared digital infrastructure and a set of standards, services, and policies.

We serve our network of participants by providing an interoperable digital fabric designed to provide statewide connectivity between all the entities responsible for the health and wellness of their patients, clients and members.
