Oracle Health, a provider of health information technology platforms and services, has initiated the process of becoming a Qualified Health Information Network (QHIN), which aligns with the US Government’s Trusted Exchange Framework and Common Agreement (TEFCA).

This move will directly facilitate its healthcare clients’ participation in the US government’s national strategy for secure and standardised health information exchange among various stakeholders.

The transition to a QHIN is expected to accelerate data exchange and expand the variety and volume of data within the healthcare ecosystem.

This is crucial for advancing AI capabilities that can improve care decisions, optimise treatment paths, and streamline payment processes.

Oracle Health’s network, powered by Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), aims to provide a central, secure gateway for healthcare data exchange.

The system is designed to secure critical health data and enable faster, more efficient sharing by eliminating additional technological layers that may hinder the process.

Oracle Health and Life Sciences executive vice president and general manager Seema Verma said: “As a longtime champion of giving patients control over their data, Oracle Health continues to demonstrate its commitment to making data more available, useful, and secure.

“As we progress through the TEFCA QHIN application process, Oracle will continue to lead the industry in providing solutions that help reduce costs and complexity and improve the utility of information for patients and providers.”

As a founding member of the CommonWell Health Alliance, Oracle Health has been at the forefront of interoperability efforts for more than a decade.

Even as it seeks QHIN status, Oracle Health plans to maintain its membership and support for CommonWell and other related industry organisations.
