Arcadia Earns Certified Data Partner Designation in NCQA Data Aggregator Validation Program
31 Julio 2024 - 7:04AM
Arcadia® (arcadia.io), a leading data platform for healthcare,
today announced that it earned Certified Data Partner designation
in the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) Data
Aggregator Validation (DAV) program. This achievement underscores
Arcadia's commitment to superior data quality.
Validated clinical data flows improve the efficiency of HEDIS®
supplemental data submission because no primary source verification
is required when health plans use validated standard supplemental
data. This saves providers, health plans, and government entities
time, and instills trust in output data matching source data.
“Earning NCQA Data Partner status unlocks additional value for
Arcadia customers and their health technology investments by
boosting data quality and confidence in using high-quality data for
accurate analytics, measurement, and reporting,” said Mary
Kuchenbrod, VP of Data Operations at Arcadia. "For example, a
health plan leveraging Arcadia’s DAV partner status to certify a
data stream can ensure they can use that data in their annual HEDIS
submission and receive credit for their quality performance.”
Organizations that earn NCQA Data Aggregator Validation
Certification undergo a rigorous assessment that includes a virtual
site review with staff interviews and a review of documentation,
queries, and systems. NCQA evaluates clinical data streams from
end-to-end to help ensure that health plans, providers, government
organizations, and others can trust the accuracy of aggregated
clinical data.
In addition to earning Certified Data Partner and Validated Data
Stream designations from NCQA, Arcadia holds additional
certifications pertaining to data integrity, including:
- HEDIS® Health Plan Clinical Quality Measures and Allowable
Adjustment Measures (2022–2024 measure years)
- Integrated Healthcare Association (IHA) Align. Measure.
Perform. (AMP) Measures (2022–2024 measure years)
