The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) and the Assistant Secretary for Technology Policy/Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ASTP/ONC) are asking for public input on how best to promote a seamless, safe, patient-centered digital health infrastructure for Medicare.
According to CMS, the aim is to unharness the power of modern technology to help seniors and their families take charge of their health and well-being, manage chronic conditions and access care.
CMS’ request for information is seeking feedback from patients, caregivers, providers, payers, technology developers and other stakeholders on how CMS and ASTP/ONC can:
Drive the evolution and embrace of digital health management and care navigation applications.
Boost interoperability and safeguard access to health data via open, standards-based technologies.
Point out barriers preventing the seamless exchange of health information across systems.
