May 11 2017 - 4:01PM
The National Center for Health Statistics, Division of Health Care
Statistics (DHCS), selected Allscripts (NASDAQ:MDRX) as part of a
team to provide data technology and services for United States
National Health Care Surveys. The team is led by prime contractor
ICF, a leading provider of professional services and
technology-based solutions to government and commercial clients.
The contract is a Blanket Purchase Agreement, signed in late 2016,
with a total period of performance of five years.
Allscripts technology, such as dbMotion™
Solution, and services will be available to support the mission of
DHCS, which is collecting, monitoring, analyzing and disseminating
data on the use, access, quality, safety, disparity and cost of
health care in the United States and on the healthcare
organizations and professionals who deliver that care. DHCS
conducts the National Health Care Surveys, a family of nationally
representative surveys of healthcare providers in inpatient,
outpatient, ambulatory and long-term care settings.
Providers, policy makers and researchers use the
data from the surveys to address important topics in healthcare,
including the quality and disparities of care among populations,
epidemiology of medical conditions, diffusion of technologies,
effects of policies and practice guidelines, and changes in
healthcare over time.
A critical component of the Allscripts
CareInMotion™ population health platform, dbMotion Solution and
Clinical Analytics Gateway (CAG) are industry-leading solutions
that enable aggregation and harmonization of clinical data from
diverse technologies and EHRs collected from a multitude of
healthcare providers and facilities, including physicians and
hospital inpatient and outpatient departments. CAG serves as a
conduit for aggregated, harmonized clinical information for
enhanced population studies.
"The CDC National Center for Health Statistics
provides a critical service as the nation’s principal health
statistics agency,” said Allscripts Chief Executive Officer Paul M.
Black. "We are proud to partner with ICF to strengthen the
overarching National Center for Health Statistics mission — to
improve U.S. health through actionable information collected and
analyzed from the National Health Care Surveys.”
