Healthcare Data Solutions Announced as Health Industry Number System Licensee

Healthcare Data Solutions has announced that they are now a licensee for the Health Industry Number System (HIN®). The HIN is a randomly assigned, nine-character, alpha-numeric identifier and was created as a universal identification number to be used by all healthcare trading partners when they communicate with each other via computer.

Foothill Ranch, CA (PRWEB) August 03, 2011

Healthcare Data Solutions (HDS) has announced that they are now a licensee for the Health Industry Number System (HIN®).

The HIN was created as a universal identification number to be used by all healthcare trading partners when they communicate with each other via computer. By using the HIN, each partner can rapidly match information it receives to its own customer list whenever it shares or exchanges information with others.

The HIN is a randomly assigned, nine-character, alpha-numeric identifier. It can identify specific healthcare facilities, as well as specific locations and/or departments within them. The HIN system was designed to allow subscribers the ability to customize HIN use with their specific trading partners, while still maintaining standard formats the rest of the industry can recognize. In this manner, HIBCC has thus created a system which simultaneously imposes the necessary rigidities of a centralized standard while meeting the needs of individual users to alter components when necessary.

"We are pleased to be offering HIN information in conjunction with our own high quality healthcare databases," said Jeff Shippen, Vice President, Database Group at HDS. "We look forward to working with fellow HIN subscribers as we develop new solutions specifically for them, incorporating HIN and HDS data."

The HIN number is currently being utilized by such companies as Becton Dickinson & Co., Cardinal Health, Eli Lilly & Company, Johnson & Johnson Health Care Sys. and others. To see a full list of Health Industry Number System licensees, please click here.
