The tool, called Simple Extracts, “eliminates the cost and technical barriers speciality healthcare businesses encounter by delivering data to customers directly within the Turquoise Health platform,” according to a Nov. 15 news release from the company. Customers can also store, access and refresh their extracts.
Rules requiring hospitals and payers to publicly post rates have resulted in nearly a petabyte of data, according to the release. Turquoise said access to all the data is unnecessary for small or specialty organizations. Simple Extracts is designed to allow them to define a precise goal and, in return, receive the corresponding data at an approachable price point.
