Digital Health Most Wired Interoperability & Population Health Report

The 2025 Digital Health Most Wired (DHMW) Interoperability & Population Health segment examines how healthcare organizations exchange data across networks, turn shared information into coordinated workflows, and improve population health outcomes through advanced adoption of person-centric digital health ecosystems.

The Most Wired Interoperability and Population Health Trends Report highlights findings from this segment of the survey and offers providers a wealth of insights to help drive increased maturity.

Among the findings in the report are:

• Data Governance as a foundation for reliable data exchange – The leading organizations in this area treat data as a discipline. The reward is consistently cleaner data exchange, fewer duplicate records, and higher data completeness. Having formal governance structures is the biggest differentiator.
  
• National exchange frameworks are widely adopted, but need to be operationalized – TEFCA, FHIR, and other technical foundations have helped build a pathway for scalable data sharing, but as most providers put these frameworks in place, they are now chasing full two-way integration.
  
• The biggest challenge to data utility is external variability, not internal readiness – Providers working to integrate shared data have found external partner readiness is a weak link in their interoperability maturity journey. This could range from limited EHR interoperability capabilities to misaligned data standards across sources.
