Data, Integration & Infrastructure
Understand the data flows that power Belong's platform — from payer claims to EHR data to real-time hospital alerts.
Core Data Sources
Payer Claims Feed
Medical, pharmacy, and lab claims. Lags 30–90 days but comprehensive.
ADT Notifications
Real-time hospital admission/discharge/transfer alerts. Critical for TOC.
EHR Data (FHIR)
Clinical notes, diagnoses, medications, labs from provider EMR systems.
Pharmacy Data
Medication fills and adherence data. Key for HEDIS medication adherence.
Member Demographics
Enrollment, eligibility, contact info from payer or CMS enrollment files.
SDOH Screening
Social determinants data from in-home assessments and community health workers.
The Integration Challenge
Belong operates across multiple health plan partners, each with different data formats, submission timelines, and API capabilities. Building a unified member record requires normalization across these sources — mapping ICD-10, CPT, NDC, and SNOMED codes into a coherent clinical picture.
