Establishing California's Data Exchange Framework: Reflecting on the Successes, Challenges, Promises, and Perils of Accelerating State Data Sharing in a Changing Landscape
Description
In one of the nation’s biggest and most complex states, California’s Data Exchange Framework (DxF) has achieved the first stage of advancing health information sharing through the development of guiding policies and procedures, implementation of participant agreements, alignment of internal programs to incentivize adoption, establishment of a network of qualified health information organizations, and the creation of a data sharing participant directory. With a combination of presentation and interactive panel, this session will share lessons - including how states can align with and build from federal standards - and look toward the future, including insights on what’s next, from improving data quality, measuring outcomes, advancing social service data collection and sharing, and embracing whole person care across Medicare, Medicaid, and commercial populations. This session is for health, government, and social service leaders who are interested in exploring ways to meaningfully share and engage data in complex environments.
Session Objectives
1. Share California's approach for setting rules of the road for health information exchange that aligns with and builds from TEFCA.
2. Discuss challenges and lessons learned from implementation (implementation is everything).
3. Highlight future actions the state is planning to build on the DxF to support whole-person care and information exchange.
