Health Care Payments Database Program (HPD) Data Release Committee

HCAI is required to convene a Data Release Committee (DRC) to advise on requests for access to non-public data.

The DRC is an integral part of the HPD Program and will be supporting HCAI to:

• Lay the foundation for HPD data access and release and contribute to the launch of an effective and credible Data Release Program
• Advise HCAI on relevant policies and processes
• Participate in thoughtful deliberation to weigh broad use of HPD data and public benefit to Californians with protection of patient privacy  
• Review and make recommendations to HCAI on access to and release of non-public HPD data

The DRC is made up of subject matter experts representing key stakeholder groups including: consumers, labor, providers (both at clinician and hospital levels), payers, purchasers, suppliers, and researchers.
