Description

The persistent challenge of data quality impacts everyone in the healthcare information ecosystem. Providers need reliable data from third-party systems for clinical decision-making. Patients require assurance that their data will transfer smoothly and accurately across different systems. Payers must trust that the data are complete and accurate for analytics and operations.
KONZA National Network, one of the first Designated QHINs under TEFCA, is unifying health information networks to facilitate seamless national medical information exchange. The cornerstone of nationwide interoperability is data reliability.

Discover how KONZA developed a robust data quality program by establishing stringent processes, procedures, and technical controls to uphold data quality standards. This strategic initiative and significant investment enabled KONZA to become one of the first Health Information Exchanges certified in the NCQA Data Aggregator Validation program. Today, KONZA maintains one of the largest and most trusted certified data streams, supporting 333 accredited organizations and validating three times as many cases as the average program participant.
