The BCDA (Beneficiary Claims Data API) is a powerful tool made available by CMS (Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services), allowing providers access to timely insights from Medicare claims data. This helps providers facilitate proactive interventions aimed at preventing potential health problems and optimizing healthcare delivery.
As a provider, leveraging BCDA insights is the key to delivering high-quality care and meeting the needs of patient populations as quickly as possible. While ADT (Admission, Discharge, Transfer) and CCLF (Claim & Claim Line Feed) provide important healthcare utilization information, BCDA offers the most comprehensive data across a population. In addition, BCDA can combine with ADT data feeds to provide an enhanced holistic view of patient groups and their health needs.
In this blog, we’ll explore three ways providers apply BCDA data to drive more proactive care in partnership with Arcadia and CareJourney.
