Many health plans have already invested in their own FHIR infrastructure and have no interest in replacing it. But going live with CMS-0057-F APIs is the starting line, not the finish line. The harder work begins after: vetting and onboarding external payer, provider, and third-party apps, building the network to actually exchange data with them, managing regulatory workflows and reporting, and keeping it all current as CMS requirements evolve.
In this fireside chat, 1upHealth’s Chief Product & Technology Officer and Chief Commercial Officer take on the question most plans don’t ask until it’s too late: what does it take to actually stay compliant after the APIs go live? Drawing on real conversations with health plans weighing whether to build this operational layer in-house or hand it off, they’ll unpack why technical compliance and operational readiness are two different bars to clear, and what separates plans that are truly ready from plans that just look ready on paper.
Over the course of the conversation, they’ll introduce the 1up Gateway, the deployment model built for health plans who’ve already done the hard part. And our Senior Sales Engineer will close with a live demo, walking through what a 1up Gateway integration actually looks like in action.
