Just Us: Before, Birth, and Beyond
Welcome to Just Us: Before, Birth, and Beyond. We invite you to tune in for a podcast focused on perinatal and community health. In an effort to raise awareness and start a conversation about perinatal health, our hosts have joined forces with doulas, midwives, nurses, lactation consultants, physicians and more from across North Carolina to share best practices, lived experiences, and lessons learned. Just Us explores real topics and dives into what has happened, what is happening, and what can happen next in the sexual and reproductive health and wellness space. Our goal is to learn and grow together in order to take care of ourselves and each other so that we can all live our healthiest lives. Thank you for being here. Let’s get started!
This project was made possible thanks to the funding, guidance and support from North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services - Division of Public Health - Maternal Health Branch-Women, Infant and Community Wellness Section.

Season 4, Episode 13: NC Health Information Exchange
Everything is connected in the digital age. How can this benefit patients who need to receive care outside of their regular provider network due to an unforeseen circumstance? In this episode, Katlyn Moss talks to Kim Webster of the North Carolina Health Information Exchange Authority about NC Health Connex, which is a database that allows patient information to be accessed across systems statewide. Katlyn and Kim will talk about how HIE works, what information is (and is not) shared, and how practices use the information. They also will tell you the next steps if your practice would like to participate in the NC Health Connex program. You’ll learn how Health Information Exchange helps patients and clinical staff when an unexpected event causes someone to visit a provider outside of their usual location. Kim will also share the crucial role HIE plays in a maternal health study that is currently taking place at the University of North Carolina.
