Details
Quality measurement is central to value-based care, but the process of collecting, calculating, and reporting these measures creates significant burdens across providers, payers, and technology partners. This session explores how HL7 FHIR can transform this challenge. Specifically, it discusses improving measure calculation and submission workflows using FHIR APIs, bulk data access, and computable measure logic. Furthermore, practical adoption methods—including implementation, governance, and alignment with CMS interoperability priorities—are examined. Implementing these standards enables automated, standardized, and real-time data exchange for quality measurement, significantly reducing the reporting burden.
