Healthcare DIVE March 15, 2022
Dive Brief:
- The Biden administration has been working on additional rulemaking to address issues with the payer-to-payer data exchange requirements set out in sweeping interoperability rules finalized in early 2020, and “we look forward to sharing this rule with you soon,” CMS administrator Chiquita Brooks-LaSure told attendees at the HIMSS annual conference in Orlando on Tuesday.
- CMS decided not to enforce those provisions when they kicked in this year, after health insurers raised concerns about operational challenges and risks to data quality given a lack of specificity in the rule.
- The new rule will incorporate extensive public comment to try to address stakeholder concerns, and will standardize how payers exchange data through application programming interfaces, Brooks-LaSure said.
