Summary
HealthEx, in partnership with athenahealth, CLEAR, MedAllies, and CommonWell Health Alliance, has launched an innovative patient data interoperability platform designed to facilitate real-time data exchange across various health systems. Leveraging individual access services under the Trusted Exchange Framework and Common Agreement (TEFCA), the platform enables secure access and sharing of medical information, empowering patients in their healthcare journeys. Its integrated identity verification and consent management ensure transparency, providing patients insight into who accesses their data, thereby fostering trust. This development aligns with federal initiatives to revolutionize health data interoperability, moving away from outdated data collection methods toward a more efficient and patient-focused approach.
