| Through the support and technical contributions of our founding members, we have created one of the most comprehensive sources of health claims information available anywhere in the United States.
With an unprecedented volume of data covering more than 247.6M million claims for care provided to 3,864,345 million Wisconsin residents, the WHIO Health Analytics Exchange is unique. While other organizations have tried, none have succeeded in developing the shared vision, cooperative relationships and technology to create such a comprehensive and powerful reservoir of actionable health information.
The Exchange holds a rolling months of claims data and a total of 23.M million episodes of care are now found in the database. An episode of care is defined as the series of treatments and follow-up related to a single medical event such as a broken leg or heart surgery, or the year-long treatment of a diabetic patient.
The scope of The Exchange and the volume of data will continue to grow as new members join and contribute to the cooperative effort.
But information and technology are only a starting point. To achieve real and meaningful changes in health care delivery that will produce higher quality and more affordable care, information must be turned into action.
The Exchange supports more informed action on the part of providers, payers and consumers.
Whether you are an employer, health care provider, insurer or an organization that provides service to those entities, The Exchange offers access to unparalleled information, a roadmap for quality improvement and enhanced credibility to support your initiatives. |
