Opala is excited to announce the launch of Opala HealthSync, our groundbreaking solution designed to empower healthcare payers with a strategic, comprehensive approach to interoperability. In today’s rapidly evolving landscape—where compliance demands like CMS-9115-F and CMS-0057-F are only part of the challenge—Opala HealthSync enables organizations to seamlessly exchange data and streamline operations for improved patient outcomes.

Healthcare organizations have long struggled to achieve seamless data exchange between providers and payers, hindering progress in delivering higher quality care. However, innovative partnerships and the adoption of HL7 FHIR (Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources) are proving that significant advancements in interoperability are achievable today—without the need for massive infrastructure overhauls or waiting for regulatory deadlines.

Good news for anyone who has health insurance with a Blue Cross Blue Shield Association (BCBSA or “Blue”) health plan through their employer! In 2024, the BCBSA introduced the Clinical Data Exchange Hub to enhance data sharing among Blue plans, particularly for out-of-area members.  Opala customer in the Pacific Northwest is leading the way as one of the first to connect.
