b.well Launches FHIR/CQL-Based Solution for Digital Quality Measures

Details

b.well Connected Health announced 'health.quality,' a solution built on its FHIR-based digital health platform designed to automate quality measurement for healthcare plans and providers. This service addresses the industry shift toward adopting digital quality measures (dQMs) based on FHIR and Clinical Quality Language (CQL), aligning with deadlines set by major regulatory bodies like CMS and NCQA for 2027. Instead of time-consuming scheduled updates, health.quality uses event-based triggers—such as new prescriptions, lab results, or encounters—to re-evaluate only the data that has changed. This approach significantly reduces computing time and cost while enabling frequent, near real-time measure updates at a population scale. Furthermore, it ensures consistency with HEDIS digital measures by supporting standard CQL measure engines and NCQA Digital Content Services artifacts. By centralizing claims and clinical data into a standards-based model, the platform helps reduce manual work, accelerate reporting, and provide clear insights for closing care gaps proactively, thereby supporting value-based care contracts and improving patient outcomes.
