SUMMARY:A Pragmatic Glidepath for Digitizing Goal-Directed Care and Person-Centered Outcomes\, presented by EMI Advisors
DESCRIPTION:This webinar offers a focused look at how FHIR®-based technologies are being used right now to address these challenges. Through real-world implementation examples\, we’ll explore how HL7® FHIR® Implementation Guides (IGs)—including the MCC eCare Plan IG\, the eLTSS IG\, and the Person-Centered Outcomes (PCO) IG—can help organizations digitize care planning and enable person-centered care coordination. These tools not only support regulatory alignment and quality improvement but also offer a strong operational and strategic value proposition. FHIR is extensible\, built on modern internet protocols\, and designed for real-time\, scalable exchange. \n\nBuilding with FHIR-based IGs positions organizations to:\nModernize legacy systems and reduce duplication\nBetter engage patients and caregivers\nBuild AI-ready data infrastructure\nParticipate in national programs like HEDIS\, MIPS\, and HCBS quality initiatives\n\nWith Care Plan now recognized as a core data class and data element in USCDI v6\, this session will equip Regional and State-level Health Information Exchange (HIEs)\, Health Data Utilities (HDUs)\, Community Information Exchanges (CIEs)\, and Community Care Hubs (CCHs)\, and providers to lead the next phase of digital health transformation by turning vision into implementation. \nLearning Objectives: \n\nUnderstand how HL7® FHIR® can be applied to digitize person-centered\, goal-directed care and person-centered outcomes reporting.\nDescribe the policy\, programs\, and business value of adopting FHIR-based infrastructure.\nLearn from real-world examples of how organizations are modernizing data exchange to improve outcomes and prepare for an AI-enabled health data ecosystem.\n\nSpeakers: \n\nEvelyn Gallego\, CEO and Founder\, EMI Advisors\nDaniela Lawton\, Director – Chronic Conditions\, NCQA\nDave Carlson\, Co-Founder\, Mountain Lotus WellBeing

SUMMARY:CSRI HDU Capability Model - Listening Session #1
DESCRIPTION:Join Civitas Networks for Health® (Civitas) and the Consortium for State and Regional Interoperability (CSRI) for a series of two listening sessions focused on the recently published Health Data Utility (HDU) Capability Model\, developed by CSRI.

SUMMARY:2026 January HL7 FHIR Connectathon
DESCRIPTION:The FHIR community vision is to enable global healthcare interoperability through the use of FHIR\, ultimately driving improvements in health outcomes worldwide.\nA cornerstone of this approach is the FHIR Connectathon\, a recurring collaborative event where vendors\, healthcare providers\, administrators and the authors of the FHIR specification work side by side. These events provide a hands-on environment for testing and refining FHIR-based solutions. \nTo support rapid adoption and consistent implementation\, a suite of test tools is made available to help developers learn how to implement the standard and validate their conformance to both the core specification and its Implementation Guides (IGs). A key strength of the FHIR community lies in its emphasis on reusability: IGs are designed to be deployed across multiple implementations\, which reduces development time and costs while improving data quality and consistency. \nAs FHIR resources and IGs evolve\, those in earlier stages of maturity remain open to discussion and revision. Connectathons play a crucial role in this process. When participants discover interoperability gaps\, such as diverging interpretations of a specification or insufficient documentation\, the feedback gathered often leads to concrete improvements in the FHIR standard itself.\nUltimately\, the FHIR community thrives on transparency\, collaboration and iterative refinement\, ensuring that the standard continues to meet the dynamic needs of the global healthcare ecosystem.

SUMMARY:Civitas Listening Session on the HTI-5 Proposed Rule
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=”201647″]Please note\, this Listening Session is for Civitas members only. \nJoin us for an in‑depth overview of the Health Data\, Technology\, and Interoperability: Deregulatory Actions to Unleash Prosperity proposed rule. \nThis rule outlines key deregulatory actions within HHS regulations related to Health IT standards\, implementation specifications\, certification criteria and programs\, and information blocking. ASTP/ONC positions this proposed rule within a broader federal effort to reduce regulatory burden on health care providers and technology developers—helping providers spend more time preventing and managing chronic disease. \nA major component of the proposal is a shift away from long‑standing\, functionality‑driven certification requirements\, instead reorienting the Certification Program toward a FHIR‑enabled future. This transition emphasizes APIs and standards‑based exchange as the next foundation for nationwide interoperability. \nWe will walk through the major elements of the proposal\, discuss what this shift means for implementers\, and highlight key considerations for stakeholders. \nAdditional context is available in our recent blog post.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

SUMMARY:WEDI: Unlocking the Power of Bidirectional Data Exchange between Payers and Providers
DESCRIPTION:Key stakeholders throughout healthcare are counting on the unfettered flow of timely\, clean data between plans and providers to reduce provider abrasion\, improve care continuity\, and close care gaps\, while also enabling more efficient workflows. \nUnfortunately\, scaling such bi-directional connectivity is proving slow going for two principal reasons: plans and providers all too often must connect with each other one by one\, and most provider EHRs and plan operational systems speak different digital languages. \nLeveraging our work with leading providers\, a cross-section of plans\, and EPIC\, InterSystems will profile new tools and practices being deployed to overcome these challenges. \nParticipants will learn:  \n\nWhy point-to-point connections remain the norm despite industry-wide demand for multi-point solutions\nPragmatic strategies for pulling forward multi-point connectivity between plans and providers\nData transformation requirements for automating data exchange between EHRs and plan systems\nTop use cases for translating bi-directional data exchange into quantifiable impact
