COVID-19 Pandemic Validates Importance of Recent Data Exchange Mandates
NextGen Healthcare, Inc., a leading provider of ambulatory-focused technology solutions, announced it is intensifying its efforts to support healthcare clients in navigating the new rules from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) and the Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ONC) announced in March. The new rules implement key interoperability provisions of the 21st Century C**** Act (C****) and support the U.S. Administration’s broader efforts to improve health data transparency and access. Additionally, ONC recently announced significant additional funding for private data projects to advance development and use of interoperable health IT. This announcement reinforces public health experts’ call for greater coordination between state and federal government agencies to track the progression and intensity of COVID-19 as it continues to spread across the U.S.
