CQL Essentials: Real-word Future-Ready Skills for Intelligent Healthcare
CQL is a language that allows clinical logic to be written once and reused across multiple systems and use cases, such as PriorAuth, quality measures, clinical decision rules, and medical policies. While not currently mandated by CMS, CQL is widely recommended in Da Vinci Implementation Guides for several use-cases and its adoption is growing.
By combining the data structure of FHIR with the clinical logic expression capabilities of CQL, healthcare organizations can finally begin to scale clinical intelligence. These innovative organizations are effectively managing modernization efforts, and gaining an edge in quality measurement, clinical decision support, and interoperability.
Smile’s CQL Essentials course takes you step-by-step through both foundational and advanced concepts, equipping healthcare and IT professionals to confidently apply CQL in real-world scenarios.
