DST Health Solutions has formed a business alliance with Health Data Vision (HDVI) to integrate HDVI's medical records collection and analysis (MRCS) system with DST Health Solutions' CareAnalyzer solution.

CareAnalyzer is a comprehensive analytics software suite that combines elements of patient risk, care opportunities and provider performance.

It is designed to help health plans improve care management and meet reporting requirements for the Healthcare Effectiveness Data and Information Set (HEDIS).

MRCS enables health plans to identify, retrieve and integrate medical records data into health plan performance metrics through which plans are better able to complete HEDIS reporting requirements from The National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA).

The integration of MRCS with CareAnalyzer is expected to help health plans ensure efficient and accurate submission of HEDIS results.

Health Data Vision president and CEO Michael Klotz said, “By integrating DST Health Solutions’ CareAnalyzer and MRCS system, health plans will not only experience a truly innovative solution, but also the benefits of combining a data- and process-centric approach.”

DST Health Solutions president Steve Sabino said, “CareAnalyzer, with the integration of MRCS, helps plans consistently measure the effectiveness of acute, chronic and preventive care.”

NCQA is an independent, not-for-profit organization dedicated to measure the quality of America’s health care.
