Clinical data quality: What you don’t know CAN hurt you

Thursday, October 17, 2019
11:00 AM CT – 12:00 PM CT (60 minutes)
Vendor Spotlight Host: Diameter Health

This vendor spotlight is hosted on our ReadyTalk platform

Clinical data is of increasing importance to health plans. They can be used to improve HEDIS scores, to identify care gaps, and for risk adjustment. But the huge variability in how clinical information is documented, and the many sources of documentation for a single member, means that information that could be of value is simply not correctly processed by downstream applications, or is omitted altogether. Poor quality clinical data can erroneously represent the care the patient is receiving and thus impact how your products are rated. 

Diameter Health’s clinical data refinery technology is squarely focused on solving this problem.  By normalizing, enhancing and deduplicating clinical information, Diameter Health ensures that the clinical data you collect can be optimally used to measure and improve the quality of your products. 

During the webinar, John D’Amore a recognized industry expert in clinical data quality, will review common clinical data issues and steps you can take to increase the value of that data. 

Participants will learn

• What are the most common clinical data quality issues 
• How a clinical data refinery is crucial to successful clinical data integration
• How Diameter Health normalizes, enriches, reorganizes and deduplicates clinical data
• The importance of NCQA certification for HEDIS standard supplemental data
• Limitations of integration standards such as FHIR for addressing clinical data quality
