Pay BillWhat we are providing:
Independent Health has adopted and developed a set of Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR) API resources that deliver standardized data formats to registered application developers.
Independent Health’s Interoperability (FHIR) API Developer Registration provides third-party application developers with access to detailed documentation, registration services, and other developer services related to application programming interfaces (“APIs”) provided by Independent Health or one of its partners.
Independent Health has implemented the FHIR API’s and resources associated with those API’s based on:
- CARIN Consumer Directed Payer Data Exchange (CARIN IG for Blue Button®) Implementation Guide (IG) STU1 v1.0.0 for Claims Explanation of Benefits (EOB) data.
- DaVinci Payer Data Exchange (PDex) US Drug Formulary* Implementation Guide (IG) STU v1.0.1 for Coverage Plan only (Additional functionality to follow)
- US Core Implementation Guide STU3 Release 3.1.1 for the Patient Data which implements Common Clinical Data Set (CCDS) and ONC U.S. Core Data for Interoperability (USCDI) v1
- Da Vinci PDEX Plan-Net IG to supply the Provider Directory API which implements Validated Healthcare Directory Implementation Guide (VHDir IG)
The above implementations are based on HL7 FHIR Release 4 framework in pursuant to the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (“CMS”) Interoperability and Patient Access Final Rule (CMS-9115-F).
Our API Functionality:
The Patient Access API allows FHIR compliant application developers to retrieve our current member’s data (with Member approval). Retrieving this data will require the registration of the developer’s application or service through our developer’s registration process.
What Type of Data is Available:
