Get Involved
A core principle of the Indian Health Service (IHS) Health Information Technology (IT) Modernization Program is building and operating PATH EHR with our partners, not for them.
We invite our partners across Indian Country to join us on this journey. You can take part in collaborative efforts like our focus groups:

Focus groups offer a space to share ideas, ask questions, and learn from one another. They are open to all IHS, tribal, and urban Indian health programs, no matter which electronic health record system you currently use.
Discussion topics include system rollouts, connecting health data between clinics, and managing patient information securely.
Together, your feedback and practical experience help guide modern health care tools that support clinics and patients alike.

The ECG brings together clinic workers, health care providers, and system experts to shape how PATH EHR works. The group reviews best medical practices and recommends how to design the software for daily patient visits and administrative tasks. Subject matter experts from IHS federal facilities, Tribes, and urban Indian organizations meet across specialized clinical and business teams to guide these decisions.
For questions about joining or working with the ECG, please contact IHSHealthITECG@ihs.gov.
