NEW YORK, NY (June 14, 2022): New York-based Healthcare technology company, mphrX, today announced their partnership with Mount Sinai Health System (Mount Sinai) to deploy mphrX’s Minerva platform to enable real-time clinical data sharing designed to meet the 21st Century Cures Act requirements.
Minerva, a Healthcare Data Platform as a Service, will integrate with the clinical source systems at Mount Sinai to create a real-time longitudinal health record. The platform will provide secure and standardized access to clinical data using SMART on FHIR R4 and Bulk-FHIR APIs.
“Part of what drew us to partner with mphrX was our shared commitment to the FHIR standard – the best chance for the industry to eliminate the technical friction when sharing data at scale,” says Mike Berger, Vice President, Chief Data and Analytics officer, Mount Sinai Health Partners and Vice President, Enterprise data at Mount Sinai Health System. “While the 21st Century Cures Act provides a great tail wind, our enterprise data strategy clearly lays out the need for a modern and high-performing end point to collaborate on data safely and efficiently. We’re excited to be at the forefront of FHIR adoption and can’t wait to see the innovations this will spawn.”
The 21st Century Cures Act requires healthcare providers to enable access to clinical data using SMART on FHIR as well as Bulk-FHIR API standards. Minerva is the first platform to be ONC certified for both the new Cures Act requirements. Mount Sinai will leverage the technology to solve multiple data sharing needs in their ecosystem.
Mount Sinai plans to use this technology to share clinical data with Payers, third-party technology companies, internal data science teams and partners to collaborate better in the delivery of patient care. The health system will also receive data from external parties to create a more holistic view of their patient’s health and socio-economic indicators.
“We are delighted to announce this partnership with Mount Sinai. We believe delivering true value-based care has become a necessity. The ability to unify healthcare data, securely share and derive insights is the core foundation to deliver better value to patients. This collaboration is a great example of how meeting Cures Act requirements can also accelerate innovation, and in turn improve patient care and outcomes.” said Varun Anand, Co-founder & Chief Operating Officer of mphrX.
