Operational Data Hub enables secure data sharing across state borders and between health agencies; lays foundation for more efficient care coordination
WASHINGTON, DC / ACCESSWIRE / September 26, 2022 / Zane Networks, LLC, a leader in healthcare transformation services and solutions, was chosen as technology partner for CRISP, the state-designated health information exchange (HIE) for Maryland and grantee for the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) Human Services Interoperability Innovations (HSII) cooperative agreement. The initiative is a demonstration program driven by ACF's Office of Planning Research & Evaluation (OPRE) and is intended to expand data-sharing efforts by state, local, and tribal governments to improve human services program delivery, and identify novel data-sharing approaches that can be replicated in other jurisdictions.
Zane Networks' Operational Data Hub (ODH) platform enables the exchange of Maternal Opioid Misuse (MOM) care plan across state borders, assessing the structure of respective care plans to determine how best to share this data. MOM care plans shared through the CRISP HIE will be converted from a CDA-document format into Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR) v4.0 for ingestion into the ODH. During the initiative, the grantees have started to test infrastructure endpoints to exchange authentication keys across CRISP and other networks to foster the secure exchange of information.
"The Operational Data Hub was designed to help care teams take a patient-centered approach to care management," said Alexandra Jellerette, president of Zane Networks. "It allows practitioners from multiple organizations to have immediate, yet secure access to patient information so they can effectively participate in the complete spectrum of care associated with an individual. We're honored to support the worthwhile efforts of CRISP as they work directly with families to coordinate the medical, behavioral, and social care of their patient populations."
Ryan Bramble, COO of CRISP Shared Services added: "The work we are doing with our friends in New Jersey will help bring about much needed standardization in the area of care planning and care plan interoperability. By working to exchange Integrated Care for Kids and MOM care plans for certain shared patients, we are creating a standard way for all care plan exchange to occur in the future. Addressing this area of interoperability will make sure that all the work our providers put into care planning for their patients is not lost when a patient moves between care settings."
