New digital health features include Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR) integration, health journey, harmonization of health data and API to share data in a comprehensive enterprise-scale platform for payers, pharma and providers, compliant with the latest CMS-ONC guidelines

SAN DIEGO, January 10, 2020 — Seqster, the award-winning SaaS-based technology platform enabling person-centric health data management, today announced that the company will launch Seqster 5.0 at J.P. Morgan 38th Annual Healthcare Conference - the largest and most informative healthcare investment symposium in the industry, bringing together industry leaders, emerging fast-growth companies, innovative technology creators, and members of the healthcare investment community, January 13-16, 2020.

The Seqster platform accelerates the adoption of CMS-ONC interoperability guidelines for enterprises, their membership and caregivers by putting them in a single person-centric ecosystem.

Seqster 5.0 Platform Highlights

• Dynamic FHIR-based clinical data retrieval

• Intuitive, fine-grained health journey to visualize medical history

• Secure isolated storage of encrypted PHI data and notes from de-identified clinical data

• Harmonized episodic clinical data delivered through a concise API

• Expanded support for clinical-grade home health devices including Dexcom’s Continuous Glucose Monitors (CGM) and Omron blood pressure monitors

• Advancing interoperability- a CMS and ONC proposed objective

“Seqster 5.0 brings all our enterprise customers into compliance with CMS-ONC guidelines, a significant step in advancing interoperability, so that their members can have clinical information travel with them throughout their journey while moving from provider to provider and health plan to health plan,” stated Ardy Arianpour, Seqster’s CEO. “We are leading a movement to prove that health data is medicine by putting people at the center.”

Seqster now has improved its connectivity to providers by adopting the Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR) standard through the FHIR API. Members can easily and securely connect to their providers through OAuth2.0, the industry-standard protocol for authorization. Seqster offers broad-based connectivity to over 3,600 hospitals and a diverse set of over 150,000 facilities that include medical groups, clinics, cancer and radiation treatment centers, outpatient surgery centers, pain treatment centers, rehabilitation centers, and urgent care locations.

Seqster has incorporated a “health journey” feature that brings life and understanding to your members’ health records, harmonized across time and across multiple providers. The health journey displays detailed clinical summaries and physician’s notes from medical offices, hospital visits, and physician encounters intuitively, letting the user, their caregivers or their medical care team get a chronological overview of the member’s health.

“We have focused our technological advancements to address real-time foundational, structural and semantic interoperability at scale for medical, fitness, and DNA data,” explained Dr. Xiang Li, Seqster’s Chief Technology Officer, “so that enterprises can empower their members to collect, visualize and share their various health data in one continuously monitored, HIPAA-compliant secure platform that holds HiTrust, SOC2, and ISO27001 certifications.”
