Netsmart To Present New Executive Webinar On Advancing Community Care Through Nationwide Secure Data Exchange

Overland Park, KS (November 30, 2025) – Netsmart, a nationally recognized healthcare technology organization, will present its new executive webinar, Open Data Sharing with Qualified Health Information Network® (QHIN™): What It Means for Community Providers. This informative session will be hosted virtually on Wednesday, December 10, 2025, at 1:00 PM ET by Netsmart’s experts, Ben Rosen, Senior Client Success Manager, and Hannah Barnhart, Client Strategy Executive. The webinar will spotlight the new national QHIN network, a government-backed data-sharing system designed to enable the secure exchange of health information between provider organizations.

“Becoming a Designated QHIN represents a major milestone in advancing interoperability across community-based care,” said AJ Peterson, SVP & GM of Interoperability and Consumer Engagement, Netsmart. “This designation expands our ability to connect more data types and organizations nationwide, empowering our clients to deliver truly whole-person care. By building a scalable, standards-based framework, we’re making it easier for providers to participate in nationwide data exchange and drive better outcomes through connected, value-based care.”

For community-based health and human services organizations, interoperability extends beyond technology and represents a critical component of effective care delivery. Netsmart will highlight how enhanced data exchange capabilities can equip frontline clinical teams with more comprehensive and usable information to support their efforts towards improved care coordination with hospitals and strategic partners.

“The strategic advancement of more secure data exchange in health information management is monumental for community-based care organizations.” says Monica E. Oss, Chief Executive Officer of OPEN MINDS. “The organizations that align standardized, nationwide exchange with simple, team-friendly workflows will be best positioned to close care gaps, demonstrate value, and exponentially thrive under evolving value-based health care reimbursement.” 

During the webinar attendees will learn: 

• How streamlined data exchange between hospitals and partner providers can help target gaps in care
• How exchanging and receiving a broader range of data can support better outcomes 
• How opportunities to participate in incentive-based reimbursement models are supported by interoperable solutions
• How to stay ready as alternative payment models continue to evolve
