Costs & Considerations

Clinigence offers clinical quality measure (CQM) analytics, including recording, calculating, and reporting (170.314(c)(1-3)) on an annual software-as-a-service (SaaS) contract. The service allows healthcare providers to aggregate patient data from various sources, including electronic health record (EHR) systems, track performance at the organization, practice and individual provider level in near real-time, and report to different outside agencies. Service costs are based on organization size (e.g. number of providers, patients, etc.) and the number of CQMs and are charged on a periodical basis (annual, monthly, etc.) One-time setup fees may be charged based on the number and type of data sources.

There are no technical or practical considerations associated with this service.
