Verma: Policies Coming to Spur Data Sharing by Insurers
AHA News
Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services Administrator Seema Verma yesterday challenged technology developers and insurers to make health information more interoperable and available to patients. “If I could challenge the developers in this room here today to achieve one mission, it would be this: help us make every doctor’s office in America a fax free zone by 2020,” she told participants at a federal conference on interoperability, adding, “I am committed to removing any and all bureaucratic and legal obstacles to machine, device and [electronic health record] system interoperability.”
