| HIKE/Smile | 10:00 | Rakesh Mathew & David Chisholm | CMS-0057 Compliance and Workflow – the Future of Connected Patient-Centered Care | Payer Interoperability: the Future of Connected Patient-Centered Care CMS-0057-F compliance can revolutionize the healthcare experience for payers, providers, and patients alike.

Sarah recently switched insurance companies and is struggling with common frustrations: repeating her health data, dealing with lengthy prior authorization processes, and finding it difficult to access her medical records. These inefficiencies create unnecessary roadblocks for payers, providers, and patients. Our demo showcases a future where these issues are solved: Payer-to-Payer APIs seamlessly transfer Sarah’s health data to her new insurance company, eliminating redundant paperwork. Providers access her up-to-date information through FHIR-based APIs, enabling better care coordination and faster decision-making. Sarah uses a digital insurance card to securely transmit her information between payers and providers. Prior authorizations are streamlined and completed faster, with clear, transparent reasons for any denials. Public reporting of key metrics ensures accountability and builds trust. |
