Member Interoperability – Use Third-Party Apps to View your Quartz Information
Accessing My Secure Data
Quartz supports secure FHIR-based APIs that allow you to share your health and claims information with third-party application you choose. Any app that supports FHIR API connections for health plan data can request access and guide you through the steps to connect
How it works
- In order to grant access to this information, you will need to have a MyChart account to authenticate and provide authorization for receipt of your data. If you do not have a MyChart account, you can create one.
- Once you have a MyChart account, below are the steps to connect to a third-party application:
- Choose an app that supports FHIR connections
- Follow the app’s instructions to connect to a health plan
- Select Quartz when prompted and sign in with your MyChart credentials
- Note: If an app does not yet support health plan connections, it may not list Quartz as an option.
- Approve the app’s request.
- Important: When you authorize an app, you specify what data is shared and for how long. Quartz will only share the information you select for the duration you specify. You can revoke access at any time through the “Manage My Linked Apps and Devices” page in MyChart.
Interoperability FAQs
Yes, interoperability is a big word for a simple concept: the ability of computer systems or software to exchange and make use of information. In health care, this means that providers and insurance companies can share your medical history, claims, billing, and more. This gives you easy access to your complete health record whenever you need it.
Yes. The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services Interoperability and Patient Access final rule (CMS-9115-F) makes it possible for certain members to access both claims and clinical data and still be compliant with all requirements to improve the electronic exchange of health care data.
Your medical history is spread out at all the different providers you’ve seen in your lifetime. With data sharing in place, any provider who’s treating your now will have more information about your health history. This will help them take care of you better and improve outcomes. Plus, you’ll have easy access to a combined, portable health history.
The interoperability rule sets standards and protocols for health plans, hospitals, and doctor’s offices to follow. An application programming interface, or API, is the technology that makes it possible for this data-sharing to happen.
Yes, the interoperability rule has clearly defined requirements for privacy and security that are aligned with HIPAA. You can trust Quartz to protect your health history just as we do now.
