MHDC
Massachusetts Health Data Consortium
For more than four decades, the Massachusetts Health Data Consortium (MHDC) has been the trusted and objective facilitator of health information and technology transformation in Massachusetts and across the country. With our merger with the New England Healthcare Exchange Network or NEHEN, we provide a range of health data innovations, insights, and services to over 4,000 health professionals across more than 200 organizations. Our mission is to inform and empower the individual in their health journey and reduce the burden healthcare imposes on patients and their families, providers, and payers. We realize this mission by assisting health organizations in navigating regulations, sharing health data securely and effectively, and reducing the burden and cost of inefficiency.

MHDC DGC Deep Dive: Physical Therapy
The DGC regularly holds deep dives into specific topics related to health data and interoperability. These topics will fall into two categories: 1) types of data and 2) types of care with special needs. These meetings are public and bring the community together to look at data collected, industry workflows, and improvements that could be made related to data standardization and interoperability. This meeting will focus on data collection and workflows related to physical therapy in outpatient and inpatient settings by independent clinics, large chains, and hospitals and other general acute care settings. We will look at industry activity around standardization of physical therapy data, how it gets collected, and how it is exchanged.
