Partnership helps tackle the Interoperability Challenges for Payers

May 28, 2020: CareJourney, a leading healthcare analytics company, proudly announces today its strategic partnership with Onyx Technology LLC, a NewWave company, to advance healthcare interoperability. CareJourney has been actively leading in the drive for interoperability transformation and this collaboration will further enhance our capabilities to deliver unparalleled healthcare interoperability services and solutions, especially assisting Payers and Providers in meeting their regulatory obligations for health data interoperability.

“This partnership with Onyx enhances CareJourney’s Interoperability Advisory Services with the ability to integrate with a proven interoperability solutions provider. Onyx brings to the table the experience and expertise of the CMS Blue Button 2.0 service, and they are perfectly positioned to extend these capabilities to commercial payers,” said Aneesh Chopra, President of CareJourney.

As the healthcare system transitions to value-based care, stakeholders need new tools to share and analyze data to improve outcomes while cutting costs and reducing administrative burdens. The partnership with Onyx will strengthen our ability to help CareJourney members meet the CMS and ONC regulations by connecting them with the technology needed to deliver on this promise.

“Both NewWave’s CEO Patrick Munis and Aneesh Chopra have long shared a vision of putting interoperable health data in the service of transforming America’s healthcare system,” says Susheel Ladwa, Onyx Technology’s CEO. “Onyx’s one-of-a-kind FHIR-enabled platform will be a catalyst in realizing CareJourney’s vision of using interoperable health data to facilitate true value-based care. We are excited to be part of their impressive team.”

Onyx provides SAFHIR, a cloud first platform built in collaboration with Microsoft, to meet the demands of the largest payers. The platform enables secure connections between payers and patients and is the product of lessons learned by NewWave from building the Blue Button 2.0 service for Medicare.

As part of this new relationship, Edward Yurcisin is transitioning from CareJourney to join Onyx as its first Chief Product Officer, leading the product development of SAFHIR and other product initiatives.
