Onyx Announces Release of SAFHIR 3, the Only Foundational Health Data Interoperability Platform

Moves Payers Beyond Regulatory Compliance to a Value Creating Data Infrastructure

ELKRIDGE, Md.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Onyx Technology LLC is pleased to announce the release of SAFHIR 3, the only truly foundational health data interoperability platform on the market today. Available to all health plans, SAFHIR 3 immediately enables compliance with the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) and the Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ONC) data sharing regulations while simultaneously enabling health plans to utilize their data exchange to create actionable information that improves the quality of care while reducing costs.

“With SAFHIR 3 we are providing health plans the opportunity to not simply be compliant with the data sharing regulations, but to also fully realize the value of that data exchange, capture the knowledge in that data and create a foundational infrastructure for this new era of health data interoperability,” said Susheel Ladwa, CEO of Onyx.

Built in collaboration with Microsoft to uniquely deliver the scalability and security of the Azure stack, SAFHIR 3 provides out-of-the box health data interoperability for America’s health payers and providers. The platform enables secure connections between payers, providers and patients and is built on the team’s experience in creation of the Blue Button 2.0 API for the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services which provides secure, FHIR-based data sharing to over 50 million beneficiaries.

“The SAFHIR 3 platform provides a true foundation for a payer’s interoperability needs,” said Edward Yurcisin, Onyx Technology’s Chief Product Officer. “This platform is built on top of Microsoft’s Azure API for FHIR and enables the exchange of data using any HL7® Implementation Guide now and in the future. SAFHIR 3 not only enables payers to meet their regulatory requirements, but to also map, consolidate, and use data to provide qualitatively better care while reducing the cost of that care.”
