Making California’s data exchange mandate clear, secure, and achievable for Social Determinants of Health (SDOH) and nonprofit leaders.
California’s Data Exchange Framework (DxF) requires healthcare and social service organizations, including non-profits and SDOH providers, to securely share health and social data in real time. This includes services like housing, behavioral health, food, and transportation.
If you receive Medi-Cal funding, provide direct services, or exchange data with healthcare providers, you’re likely in scope.
Who’s included? Managed care plans, county behavioral health, hospitals, clinics, physician groups, labs, and others named in the state’s DSA mandate.
What’s required? Sign the state’s Data Sharing Agreement (DSA) and prepare for secure, standards-based data exchange using an approved method (e.g., QHIOs).
We don’t just help you meet the requirement, we help you build a program that lasts.
We’ve helped non-profits, behavioral health orgs, and healthcare partners build programs that do more than check a compliance box. Our approach ensures:
Clarity:
We translate regulatory and technical language into actionable tasks.
Consistency:
You get structured, repeatable processes to scale across teams.
Capability:
We improve security maturity while building internal confidence.
You didn’t launch your organization to decode state frameworks. But we did.
If you’re required to execute the DSA, or you’re already in the process, we’ll meet you where you are, and guide your team toward operational readiness with clarity and compassion.
Contact us today to begin a structured readiness process that puts your mission, and your data, on solid ground.
We were trying to understand the best structure for establishing a security program that supported all the highly differentiated businesses within our corporate family. Their roadmap and accompanying work provided a foundation that helped us set priorities for the program in place today.
