Driving innovation, together.

Active in the consortium, Team BZ collaborates with active organizations to develop a healthcare services platform community that will enable an economy for interoperable applications in a service-oriented architecture and knowledge-enabled model. On behalf of a government agency, Team BZ contributed to integrating clinical content that brings together different terminology standards by using a single model that encompasses any customized content. This initiative garnered the 2018 Federal Health IT Innovation Award, and empowers informaticists and developers to convert user-supplied terminologies into the single model through open source software.

“Instead of spending so much time and resources on data interpretation, medical professionals can now build Health IT solutions with more reliable and shareable data.”

Team BZ subject matter experts are consistently involved in HL7® plenary and working groups, and Connectathons to continue to shape the healthcare standards community. They hold co-chair and facilitator positions in the following areas: Architectural Review Board, Community-based Care and Privacy, Conformance, Electronic Health Records, Financial Management, Implementable Technology Specifications, Infrastructure Steering Division, International Council, Modeling and Methodology, Orders and Observations, Security, and the Standards Governance Board.

“Our vision is a world in which everyone can securely access and use the right health data when and where they need it.”

We share the same philosophy with our partners at Perspecta -- the technology modernization journey doesn't have a finish line. While most organizations think about digital transformation in terms of changing technology, Perspecta thinks of it as much more than that -- an opportunity to redefine strategies and accelerate mission success. Team BZ participated in Perspecta’s Veteran Care without Boundaries use case that followed different veterans on their journeys through Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) risk identification and negative outcomes mitigation. It showcased how the orchestration of population health and individual patient care unfolds through care coordination and analytics applications using BPM+ Health automation, executable knowledge artifacts and an HL7 FHIR® interoperability platform.

“Our team of digital experts is never satisfied with the solutions of today because there are always new challenges looming. That’s why we deliver more than an answer to a single problem—we enable continuous, value-based digital transformation.”
