Data Intermediary Tiger Team Workplan March 22, 2013
Framework Framework Payers Intermediaries Clinical Data Sources
Agenda for 2013 • Create one or more strawman future state versions of actors and actions that include patients, providers, EHRs, data intermediaries and consumers of quality data (in addition to consumers and providers) such as payers and accreditation organizations. • Solicit public comment on the strawman versions as a way to try to ensure that we have captured all the appropriate actors and actions. • Obtain testimony on current state by asking representatives of existing data intermediaries to react to the strawman versions incuding how their current activities differ. An alternative approach, would be to somehow survey existing data intermediaries but these seemed too costly an approach • Based on the above, develop recommendations for how intermediaries could contribute to improved data quality • Develop recommendations on how to evolve EHRT certification and data governance to support intermediaries
