The California Health and Human Services Agency (CalHHS) this week launched a new online portal allowing providers to sign on to California’s first ever Data Sharing Agreement (DSA)…
Healthcare entities, including general acute care hospitals, physician organizations and medical groups, skilled nursing facilities, health service plans and disability insurers, Medi-Cal managed care plans, clinical laboratories, and acute psychiatric hospitals, are required to sign the DSA by January 31st, 2023.
John Ohanian, Chief Data Officer at CalHHS’s Center for Data Insights and Innovation, emphasized the benefits of the DSA and Data Exchange Framework on the healthcare system.
