FHIR Data Platform

An Optimized Platform to Help Meet the CMS Interoperability Mandate

The Smile CDR FHIR data platform works with TIBCO Connect solutions to help healthcare payer organizations transform existing clinical and claims data for storage using Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR). Healthcare organizations benefit from an innovative platform that provides API management capabilities to control access to stored call data record (CDR) data and visual analytics that deliver reporting capabilities against FHIR data.

Customer Challenge

The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid (CMS) mandates implementing secure, standards-based patient access APIs that allow members to access their healthcare information using HL7 FHIR 4.0.1. This requirement has made finding a compliant solution a major priority for payers.

Partner Solution

The Smile CDR FHIR data platform supports all FHIR versions and resources, and is perfectly suited to meet the CMS interoperability mandate. The platform leverages TIBCO Cloud Integration, TIBCO Cloud API Management, and visual analytics capabilities. The combined solution provides significant value to payer organizations striving to meet the Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information (ONC) mandate, which requires that patients can electronically access all of their electronic health information (EHI) at no cost.

Benefits

The Smile CDR FHIR data platform enables payer organizations to:

• Accelerate implementation and reduced time-to-market
• Invest in a strategic solution to meet current and future CMS requirements while establishing an interoperability capacity for future innovation
• Mitigate risk, with enhanced security and privacy features that can help meet Health Information Portability and Accountability Act compliance (HIPAA).
