KLAS notes: “Onyx SAFHIR: Vendor’s parent company, NewWave, collaborated with CMS to build the Blue Button 2.0 API, which SAFHIR is modeled on. Onyx reports the product provides a full FHIR interoperability solution in Microsoft Azure. Onyx also released movemyhealthdata.com, said to be the first payer-to-payer exchange solution, connecting over 250 health plans.”

This vendor guide is intended to help health plans and TPAs understand the vendor technology options.”
