Employers and other health care purchasers: Have you struggled with obstacles and foot-dragging when you request data to serve your plan participant population?  Consultants, Vendors and TPAs: are you tired of playing tug-o-war over accessing the data you need to serve your clients?  If so, this webinar is for you.

Over the past year, CPR has researched the barriers purchasers and their business associates encounter when they request data from a health plan or other vendor.  We gathered information from a diverse group of stakeholders – employer-purchasers, vendors, consultants, and even health plans to inform a 360° view of data stewardship between purchasers and their business associates.  This research culminated in the creation of a new suite of tools that purchasers can use to assess their TPA’s and other vendors’ willingness to “play nice” in the data sandbox.  In January, we published these tools – Purchaser Tools for Breaking Barriers to Data Ownership, Access, & Use and hosted a virtual event – Data is the New Health Care Currency. Are Purchasers Getting Short-Changed.

This session will orient you to CPR’s TPA and Vendor Self-Assessment and RFI Questionnaire for Enhancing Data Stewardship and provide a timeline to conduct the assessment, then memorialize the TPA’s and Vendor’s commitments using CPR’s Model Contract Language for Enhancing Data Stewardship.

Attendees will leave with an understanding of CPR’s newest resource and a multi-month roadmap to break down common barriers to data ownership, access, and use.
