L.A. Care Health Plan has become the first managed care plan in California to implement FHIR®-based data exchange under the state’s Data Exchange Framework, connecting with LANES, its designated Qualified Health Information Organization. This partnership enables secure, real-time sharing of clinical, claims, and social services data—enhancing care coordination, closing gaps in medical history, and improving outcomes for underserved communities. The initiative reinforces L.A. Care’s commitment to health equity and aligns with national efforts to advance secure, interoperable health information sharing.
