In a presentation, John Hoyt, executive vice president of HIMSS Analytics, detailed the model, which is intended to evaluate providers’ use of IT, data analytics and patient engagement to enhance care coordination and continuity of care.

The model’s seven stages that build on the HIMSS Analytics Electronic Medical Record Adoption Model. HIMSS hopes it will serve as “a global model for healthcare providers that underscores the importance of information exchange, care coordination, interoperability, patient engagement, and analytics, with the ultimate goal of holistic individual and population health management,” according to a news release.

InterSystems, a provider of software to enable connected care, was the first organization to voice support of the model.
