Join Us for the January Da Vinci Project Community Roundtable on January 28, 2026, from 4 - 5:30 pm ET

As we enter 2026, the healthcare industry continues to move from planning to active implementation of standardized data exchange. Because the first phase of the CMS-0057-F Interoperability and Prior Authorization Final Rule took effect this month, the stakes for technical and operational alignment have never been higher. The HL7 Da Vinci Project Community Roundtable, taking place on January 28, 2026, from 4 – 5:30 pm. ET,  will provide insights and resources to navigate this pivotal year.

What You'll Learn

Our previous sessions focused on how using Da Vinci burden reduction and payer data exchange IGs are transforming healthcare and how best to meet prior authorization regulatory requirements. This January session builds on that foundation by outlining key use cases, IGs, and the progress made in standardized data exchange.

Gain valuable knowledge on operational enhancements and resources to optimize your planning for smoother HL7 FHIR implementations, including implementation guides referenced in federal regulations. Additionally, hear about Da Vinci's 2026 priorities and the HL7 Da Vinci Community Champions program.

October Da Vinci Community Roundtable on October 22 from  4:00 – 5:30 p.m. ET

As healthcare organizations continue to operationalize CMS-0057 requirements, understanding how to align technology, workflows, and policy is more critical than ever. The HL7® Da Vinci Project Community Roundtable, taking place on October 22, 2025, from 4:00 – 5:30 p.m. ET, will bring together industry leaders to share practical, actionable insights on how Da Vinci Implementation Guides (IGs) are transforming interoperability and reducing administrative burden across the healthcare ecosystem.

This month’s session, “Actionable Insights on Improving Burden Reduction, Payer Data Exchange, and Patient Cost Transparency,” will highlight the real-world value of HL7 FHIR®-based standards in improving efficiency, streamlining workflows, and driving measurable progress in value-based care.

What You'll Learn

The last HL7 Da Vinci Community Roundtable explored how regulatory, technical, and business drivers are shaping the future of prior authorization reform, with a focus on implementation strategies and interoperability alignment. That session underscored a key message: collaboration across payers, providers, and vendors is essential for scaling FHIR adoption.

The upcoming October Roundtable builds on that foundation connecting the dots between Burden Reduction, Payer Data Exchange (PDex), and Patient Cost Transparency (PCT) by highlighting Da Vinci’s pilots to show how these efforts can deliver tangible impact. First-hand accounts from Providence and Multicare as well as an update on recent testing work will be featured.
