Long Description

The  CARIN Consumer Directed Payer Data Exchange Implementation Guide (CARIN IG For Blue Button®) provides a set of resources that payers can display to consumers via a FHIR API, including Oral and Vision Profiles.

The CARIN Alliance is an HL7 FHIR Accelerator program which brings implementers together to advance the use of HL7 FHIR standards in health care. The CARIN Alliance Health Plan Workgroup was organized to develop a FHIR-based API that could be sent to a consumer-facing application and was designed to answer the challenge for health plans to ‘meet or exceed’ the CMS Medicare Blue Button 2.0 capabilities. The CMS Medicare Blue Button 2.0 project provides over 53 million Medicare fee-for-service beneficiaries access to their electronic claims information.

Please join us on Sunday 5/7 at 1-2 pm ET in the Royal Room breakout room for a discussion regarding the latest potential updates to the CARIN IG for Digital Insurance Card. There will be no testing track at the Connectathon.
