It is a CMS mandate that provides for expanding patients’ electronic access to their protected health information.  All Medicaid and Medicare Advantage plans shall comply with this mandate.

It is intended to facilitate the patient increased access to their personal health information (PHI), in order to help them be the center of their own health care decisions, thus minimizing the risk of duplicating tests and other inefficiencies.
This access to health information exchange (interoperability) helps to guarantee that providers are allowed to see an individual’s medical history in order to make informed clinical decisions, which can lead to a better coordinated care.

Our Beneficiary may download and register in an external application of their choice, and may direct such app to download and access the health information we have available.
