About this episode
Jay Nakashima, President at eHealth Exchange, discusses in this video interview some recent hot developments in health data exchange, and how he expects it to expand in the future.HHS's TEFCA project has been in force for some time, while the CMS-Aligned Network is new and has created confusion in the industry about the relatinship between them (Note: Steven Posnack has a great article that works to clear this up). eHealth Exchange is a designated QHIN under TEFCA and plans to implement the criteria necessary to become a CMS-Aligned Network as well. Nakashima recommends that anyone who has started to work with TEFCA continue to do so.He calls TEFCA "prescriptive" and thinks that more varied options will become available.Learn more about eHealth Exchange: https://ehealthexchange.org/Healthcare IT Community: https://www.healthcareittoday.com/
