The Department of Health
and Human Services has recently posted a request for bids to create an all-claims
database from all payers. Currently HHS
is restricted to data arising from the CMS Integrated Data Repository and Chronic
Conditions Warehouse and the Medicaid claims files to analyze CER
opportunities. HHS hopes to expand the
information available to it through the creation of a state based all-payer,
all-claims database. The contract
awarded will be for a targeted design to create the database and to provide
supporting services, methods and skills.
The project will be funded with money provided
through the CER initiative and the data will be used in furtherance of CER
analysis for all patients, and no longer be restricted to the priorities
established by the Medicare and Medicaid populations. (Solicitation Number: 10-233-SOL-00039; available at: https://www.fbo.gov/?s=opportunity&mode=form&id=71d119aea45a6f2efdc5862cac9cb6e2&tab=core&_cview= |
