Clinical Data Solutions for Health Plans

Acquire, optimize, and activate clinical data to address administrative challenges and improve care outcomes through enhanced data exchange and interoperability

Request Information

Gathering all the administrative and clinical data needed to get the full picture of a clinical encounter has been a significant barrier to seamless healthcare exchange and true interoperability. Coding and payment information exists in claim adjudication systems, while labs, provider notes, and test results reside in EHRs and other clinical systems.

Availity helps payers reintegrate clinical and administrative data for use across the enterprise with a set of solutions designed to improve connectivity, standardization, and readiness for evolving regulatory requirements.

Clinical Data Acquisition

Enhance and simplify clinical data connectivity  

Clinical data exists across the healthcare ecosystem—in EHRs, HIEs, state registries, data aggregators, record retrieval vendors, and other payer organizations. Without a single, easy way to connect to each data source, payers have struggled to get timely access to critical data.        

As a long-time trusted intermediary for healthcare administrative transactions, Availity is uniquely positioned to simplify clinical connectivity. Our extensive network of trading partners and deep technical expertise means we can address payer-specific connectivity requirements based on state, region, lines of business, EHR vendors, and compliance standards such as those set by CMS.

Clinical Data Optimization

Improve the quality and usability of clinical data

For some payers, the challenge isn’t how to access more clinical data; it’s how to make sense of the data they already have efficiently and at scale. Data acquired from multiple, disparate sources must be evaluated, standardized, and normalized before it can be effectively deployed into clinical and administrative workflows. But these manual, time-consuming processes take analytics and informatics staff away from higher-value activities.

Availity helps payers better scale their clinical operations by ingesting data from multiple sources and formats (C-CDA, FHIR, PDF, and more) and transforming it into a robust asset that can be used across the enterprise.    

Data Quality Optimization

Parse

data into discrete clinical entries to support an organizational structure.

Normalize

data to industry standard technologies by creating a common language for data exchange to achieve semantic interoperability.

Enrich

data with standard metadata and classifications to ensure efficient analytics queries and optimize data for most effective downstream use.

Reorganize

data to appropriate clinical document sections by creating a complete, updated view of patient history for appropriate outreach and care delivery.

Deduplicate

incoming data systems to ensure clean inputs for value-based care, claims accuracy, and longitudinal insights.

Clinical Data Activation

Infuse fit-for-purpose clinical data into administrative and clinical workflows

Once clinical data has been acquired and transformed, it’s ready for use in multiple workflows across the enterprise. For many payers, this has been the missing piece. How to put the clinical data they already have to use throughout the enterprise.     

On the clinical side this includes improving HEDIS® and Stars ratings, supporting value-based care programs, optimizing utilization management initiatives, and more. Clinical data can also be used to optimize administrative workflows such as claims editing, claims attachments.

Availity partners with payers and providers to assess how best to deploy data into workflows.  The following are some of relevant use cases.
