Payer/Provider Information Exchange Work Group
Mission
The mission of the WG is to convene and coordinate payers, health plans, consumers, providers, and other organizations (e.g. ACOs, SDOs, HIEs) to optimize and improve the administrative/clinical (not direct patient care) exchange of information for:
- Identifying gaps in care and quality Levels,
- Performing Care Overview/Oversight,
- Informing care
- Population management/overview/oversight
Charter
PIE WG will produce normative and informative standards for administrative and clinical records/data sharing between healthcare entities to support payer/provider processes. We will work closely with appropriate Work Groups to coordinate HL7 artifacts. PIE will actively review administrative information interchange standards other than HL7 in an attempt to improve the development of interoperable standards and operating rules.
Artifacts may include concepts such as, Implementation Guides, Health Stories, and Use Cases to support:
- healthcare claims or encounters
- healthcare services review (e.g., prior authorizations/precertification’s, referrals)
- claim audits
- benefits and coverage
- value based care (e.g., analytics, care management, reporting, care gaps etc.)
- providing patient access to healthcare data
