Coordinate care more efficiently and more effectively
Improve quality of care and patient satisfaction
Increase office and clinical workflow efficiency
Satisfy requirements for the meaningful use of electronic health records and for the reporting of quality metrics

NCQA Validation
Hixny’s clinical data has been validated through NCQA’s Data Aggregator Validation program, ensuring standards and protocols are met and Hixny’s clinical data may be used by health plans as standard supplemental data for HEDIS® MY 2021 reporting and for other quality programs. You may view the data sources validated for HEDIS® MY 2021 here.
If you are a provider who would like to have your data validated for HEDIS® MY 2022 reporting, Hixny can work with your staff to improve data quality by providing mock primary source verification, assess workflow and support quality improvement efforts. Please contact us to speak to our consultant about your specific situation.
Hixny’s clinical data undergoes a rigorous validation process from NCQA to help ensure data accuracy and improve usability of that data and the current validation status only applies to HEDIS® MY 2021 reporting.
A Community Effort
The information available through Hixny is only as complete as the information provided to Hixny. That’s why it’s critically important for hospitals, physicians and other health professionals, health plans, government agencies, employers and consumers to make sure the whole community has real-time, accurate:
Allergy, medication and immunization records
Clinical documents and transcribed reports
Demographics
Diagnoses and procedures
Discharge summaries and emergency department reports
EKGs and other valuable test readings
Encounter notes and problem lists
Lab results and imaging reports
Patient consent verification
Population health and public health management data
About Patient Consent
Right now, your Hixny participation depends on your patients’ expressed consent to access and view their records. It’s in your power to help healthcare consumers understand how their consent helps improve the care they receive.
A quick explanation that their signature on the customized form we’ll prepare for you or on an electronic signature pad allows you to access and view records with their other providers electronically is usually sufficient to gain consent. In fact, 93 percent of adults who are asked for consent give consent, according to a Siena College Research Institute poll. It takes less than a minute.
Work with patients to update any information that may be incorrectly entered into their records. You might make this a normal part of your intake workflow, just like the standard medication check you already complete.
Remember that patients can also withdraw their consent for you to access and view their data through Hixny by completing a withdrawal of consent form that we will also provide you.
