The partnership between IMAT Solutions and Firely addresses this challenge by combining IMAT&#8217;s advanced clinical data aggregation and normalization capabilities with Firely&#8217;s FHIR-native digital quality measurement technology and Clinical Quality Language (CQL) execution engine developed in collaboration with NCQA.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Together, the organizations provide an end-to-end solution that enables health plans to collect clinical data directly from provider EHR systems, transform and standardize the data into FHIR-based resources, and evaluate HEDIS Electronic Clinical Data Systems (ECDS) and digital quality measures using certified CQL-based measure logic.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The integrated solution begins with IMAT Solutions aggregating clinical data from across a payer&#8217;s provider network, including EHRs, Health Information Exchanges, laboratories, and other clinical sources. IMAT&#8217;s platform then cleanses, de-duplicates, normalizes, and validates the data to create a comprehensive longitudinal patient record.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Once the data has been curated and standardized, measure-level clinical datasets are securely delivered to Firely&#8217;s digital quality measurement environment. Firely&#8217;s FHIR-native dQM platform evaluates the data against HEDIS and other quality measure specifications using computable FHIR and CQL logic. The resulting numerator, denominator, exclusion, and gap-in-care insights provide health plans with unprecedented visibility into data completeness, quality performance, and opportunities for intervention.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Health plans are under increasing pressure to improve quality outcomes while preparing for the industry&#8217;s transition to digital quality measures,&#8221; said Mark Coetzer, VP of Business Development. &#8220;By partnering with Firely, we can provide payers with a comprehensive solution that not only aggregates and improves clinical data quality, but also validates that data against digital measure specifications. This allows organizations to identify documentation and data gaps earlier and act with greater confidence.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Digital quality measurement depends on having high-quality, FHIR-native clinical data available at scale and confidence that it&#8217;s being evaluated against the right measure logic,&#8221; said Rich Almeida, VP of Product Strategy and Compliance. &#8220;IMAT&#8217;s expertise in clinical data acquisition and normalization complements Firely&#8217;s digital quality measurement capabilities. Together, we are helping health plans move beyond retrospective reporting toward a future of continuous quality monitoring and proactive care gap management.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The partnership addresses several critical challenges facing health plans, including:<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Preparing for NCQA&#8217;s transition to Digital HEDIS and broader industry adoption of digital quality measures.<br \/>\n\u2022 Improving the completeness and quality of clinical data used for quality reporting.<br \/>\n\u2022 Reducing reliance on manual chart abstraction and retrospective data collection processes.<br \/>\n\u2022 Identifying numerator and denominator gaps earlier in the measurement year.<br \/>\n\u2022 Supporting HEDIS ECDS reporting initiatives with standardized, interoperable clinical data.<br \/>\n\u2022 Enabling prospective quality management and care gap closure programs.<br \/>\n\u2022 Leveraging FHIR and CQL standards to create a future-ready quality reporting infrastructure.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>As payers prepare for the industry&#8217;s shift to digital quality reporting, the combined IMAT Solutions and Firely offering provides a scalable standards-based foundation for achieving better quality outcomes, improving operational efficiency, and supporting value-based care initiatives.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>About IMAT Solutions<\/strong><br \/>\nIMAT Solutions are experts in health data acquisition and normalization, supporting programs for HEDIS, STARS, Population Health Management, Data Aggregator Validation (DAV), 21st Century Cures Act and CMS Interoperability.
