PMP Registration

A workgroup of subject matter and technical experts from the Department of Health, Washington Technology Solutions (WaTech) and the Office of Cyber Security are gathering feedback and evaluating options in collaboration with providers and professional associations that meet our shared goals of security and patient safety. We must develop solutions that effectively balance the need for security with ease of use to support provider use of the PMP in Washington.

PMP Use and Impact

Emergency Department Information Exchange (EDIE) End User:

Just as creating a PMP was a game changer …, pushing that

information without provider bias, without burdensome hurdles, now

pretty much mandates providers be aware of these patient's special

needs and risks.
