HDU 101—Putting the Utility in Health Data Utility: A Collaborative Approach for Healthier Communities
Description
Our health and community data holds immense potential, but fragmented systems often limit its usefulness for both individual care and population health. Health Data Utilities (HDUs) are emerging as a powerful solution, offering a secure and collaborative environment to unlock the power of our health and community-based information. This panel discussion will explore how HDUs can revolutionize health and community care by bringing together diverse stakeholders, including HIEs, ACOs, CIEs, public health, and payers, empowering a more comprehensive approach. We will hear from a diverse panel on the benefits of HDUs with real-world examples showcasing how HDUs are leading to improved care coordination, population health management, and personalized medicine while addressing critical questions about data quality, data governance, consent, and security while empowering individuals to control their health and community information safely.
Session Objectives
1. Understand the comprehensive data ecosystem of HDUs: Gain insights into how HDUs go beyond traditional HIEs by incorporating data from health plans, ACOs, CIEs, public health departments, and even all-payer claims databases (APCDs). This broader data picture empowers a more comprehensive health and community care approach.
2. Recognize the multi-stakeholder value proposition of HDUs: Learn how HDUs benefit a diverse range of stakeholders, including patients (improved care coordination), providers (better population health management), researchers (identification of disease trends through anonymized data), and public health initiatives (targeted outreach programs for at-risk populations).
3. Explore real-world applications and considerations for building trust: Discover how HDUs lead to positive change through actionable insights and measurable impact. The panel will also address critical questions about data quality, governance, consent, security, and how individuals can control their health information within the HDU framework.
