Keep Your Eyes on These Four Health Data Advancements in 2023

California is at a moment of opportunity with ambitious goals to improve health equity and achieve “A Healthy California for All” — goals that will require robust health data infrastructure and will fundamentally change the way healthcare is delivered in our state. This kind of infrastructure transformation, while desperately needed and the right thing to do, is, simply put, not easy. As we look to 2023, here are a few things to watch as we go through our growing pains together:

• California’s AB 133 and Data Exchange Framework kick into high gear
• CalAIM’s new Population Health Management Service goes live
• Modernizing public health data infrastructure for precision public health
• Federal impact: Qualified Health Information Networks are on the horizon. What can we expect?
