– Change Healthcare has just announced the launch of API & Services Connection, a of library of APIs that spans the Change Healthcare broad portfolio of solutions and includes AI, Medical Network, Payments, Pharmacy, and RCM products.
– Now available on the AWS Marketplace, the new library gives healthcare innovators instant access to the same clinical, financial, operational, and patient experience services that power Change Healthcare’s portfolio of HIT solutions.
– Now, innovative development teams at provider, payer, start-ups and software organizations can tap a comprehensive API & Services library to rapidly prototype, build, and deploy highly scalable solutions while meeting regulatory requirements.
Change Healthcare unveiled its API & Services Connection, a marketplace for open, standards-based application programming interface (API) products. Now, any healthcare organization––payers, providers, vendors, consultants, and independent developers––can leverage the same capabilities that power the company’s industry-leading healthcare financial, clinical, and engagement solutions.
Available on AWS Marketplace to Accelerate Healthcare Innovation
Subscription to the catalogue of APIs is managed through the AWS Marketplace––making it easy for healthcare organizations to rapidly innovate digital health solutions at scale on Amazon Web Services (AWS). To accelerate adoption and use, Change Healthcare will provide comprehensive enablement tools, including implementation guides from the Argonaut Project, an initiative to advance industry adoption of modern, open interoperability standards.
Micky Tripathi, Argonaut Project manager and president and CEO of the Massachusetts eHealth Collaborative, added, “APIs are the key to advancing the healthcare industry’s adoption of modern, open interoperability standards. Change Healthcare’s use of open standards means that these APIs and services can be readily deployed across the healthcare ecosystem––whether connecting to EHRs, adding functionality to payers’ and providers’ internally-developed solutions, or enhancing other third-party solutions. This is a resource with the potential to help reduce the time and cost associated with many health information technology deployments. It’s very exciting that anyone can take advantage of, and benefit from, these open industry healthcare APIs to foster a more open, interoperable, and capable healthcare IT universe.”
Revenue Cycle API Products
API products providing solutions to power Revenue Cycle Management, Payment, and Medical Eligibility workflows are now available in the Change Healthcare API & Services Connection. The company is providing market-leading innovation, including its Claims Lifecycle AI API that provides the intelligence to accurately and proactively predict which claims are likely to be denied and why.
API Benefits
This product helps increase and accelerate revenue and reduce costs for hospitals and health systems. Over time, Change Healthcare expects to have hundreds of open, standards-based APIs available that represent the company’s comprehensive portfolio of healthcare IT solutions, as well as API-based solutions from its partners.
“Our productized APIs empower healthcare start-ups, hospitals and health plans, and other healthcare-focused businesses to more rapidly develop innovative products and services while meeting regulatory requirements,” said Gautam M. Shah, vice president, Platform and Marketplace at Change Healthcare. “Our APIs help reduce application development time, testing, and cost––while promoting interoperability and fostering innovation.”
