02 Aug How IMAT Solutions Meets Data-Sharing Best Practices Playbook Requirements

AHIP, the American Medical Association (AMA), and the National Association of ACOs (NAACOS) recently published data-sharing best practices that organizations may voluntarily adopt to support the growth of value-based care.

This new data-sharing best practices playbook aims to help health payers, providers, hospitals, and other value-based care entities to overcome key challenges associated with data sharing for value-based care arrangements that persist today.

Following are the key elements of this playbook, and how IMAT Solutions can help any organization in the value-based care ecosystem meet these voluntary requirements:
 

Create an Interoperable Data Ecosystem: Adopt consistent content and exchange standards to simplify and expand data sharing.

How IMAT Helps: IMAT leverages the world’s fastest, interoperable data engine to aggregate, normalize, index, and codify all data from across the entire healthcare ecosystem.
 

Share More Complete, Comprehensive Data: Empower value-based care participants with complete, accurate, and consistent data that paints a more comprehensive picture of a patient or population.

How IMAT Helps: Taking inspiration from the Triple Aim concept of health data, the IMAT C3 Framework ensures that all health data is Clean (C1), Current (C2) and Complete (C3).
 

Improve Data Collection and Use to Advance Health Equity: Collect and share data to identify and address health disparities as well as barriers to care beyond the clinical setting, while ensuring transparency, appropriate use, and confidentiality.

How IMAT Helps: IMAT’s data collection capabilities allow for the aggregation of a broader range of incompatible data sources; faster, more accurate value-based reporting on clinical outcomes or quality measures associated with value-based payment models and better monitoring of individual patient health metrics to enhance health equity efforts.
 

Share Timely, Relevant, and Actionable Data: Prioritize sharing focused insights and data early, often, and in accessible ways to improve care.

How IMAT Helps: IMAT supports ADT real-time alerts and notifications which play a crucial role in promoting patient safety, care quality, and operational efficiency. By facilitating timely communication and data exchange, these alerts enable healthcare providers to deliver more effective and patient-centered care.
 

Make Data Methodologies, Calculations, and Context Readily and Easily Available: Share detailed information on how and what data was derived to foster trust among value-based care participants in the data they receive, use, and by which performance is measured.

How IMAT Helps: IMAT provides a 360-degree approach to enhancing data quality and interoperability. This includes access to actionable member data, source interoperability, patient identity resolution, and always retaining the raw source data for immutable auditing and compliance.
