What You Should Know: 

– Oracle Health, a provider of healthcare technology solutions, today announced its application to become a Qualified Health Information Network (QHIN) under the Trusted Exchange Framework and Common Agreement (TEFCA). 

– The move signifies Oracle’s commitment to advancing secure and efficient health information exchange across the U.S. healthcare system.

QHIN Background

TEFCA, established by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, provides a framework for nationwide interoperability, enabling the seamless and secure exchange of electronic health information between healthcare organizations. QHINs are organizations that meet TEFCA’s stringent requirements for security, privacy, and interoperability.

Leveraging Oracle Cloud Infrastructure to Enhance Healthcare Data Exchange

Oracle Health’s proposed QHIN will leverage the robust infrastructure of Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), offering several key advantages:

  • Enhanced Security: OCI’s security features and compliance certifications will ensure the secure exchange and protection of sensitive health information.
  • Improved Efficiency: The platform is designed to streamline data exchange, reducing the need for complex technology layers that can slow down the process.
  • Expanded Data Sharing: Oracle’s QHIN will support a wider range of data types, including medical images like X-rays and MRIs, which are not typically available in other exchanges.

Benefits for Oracle Health Customers

If designated as a QHIN, Oracle Health customers will be able to:

  • Seamlessly share health information: Connect with other healthcare organizations across the country to exchange patient data securely and efficiently.
  • Improve care coordination: Enhance collaboration among providers to deliver more coordinated and patient-centered care.
  • Participate in a nationwide health information network: Contribute to a more connected and interoperable healthcare system.

“If designated, becoming a QHIN will help us enable providers, public health officials, patients, and payers to securely access data that can help improve care delivery, deliver insight into community health, and accelerate authorizations and reimbursements,” said Seema Verma, executive vice president and general manager, Oracle Health and Life Sciences. “This builds on our long-standing leadership in driving interoperability to increase industry-wide efficiency and to help ensure patients retain control over their own data.”
