Organizations that submit letters of intent can request historical data from CMS for hospital, physician and post-acute provider claims. CMS will cover the cost of providing this data, which typically costs several thousand dollars, noted Jonathan Pearce, Principal, Singletrack Analytics, in a blog post.

According to Mr. Pearce, “Viewing and analyzing this data with the respective providers can contribute to a more data-based conversation about patient care with these providers.  Access to this data should provide value to a hospital even if it doesn’t subsequently decide to participate in this program.”
