A team from Regenstrief Institute and IU has published a case study on the Indiana Network for Patient Care (INPC), showing how it has expanded over three decades from a local data repository to a statewide and regional health information exchange.

The INPC now contains records for more than 20 million patients, supports real-time outbreak response, links to disease registries, and integrates directly into provider workflows. The study outlines how the INPC serves as a model for other states seeking to modernize health data infrastructure.
