Approaches for overcoming barriers to cross-sector data sharing.

OBJECTIVES
To characterize factors influencing the development and sustainability of data sharing in the Mid-Ohio Farmacy (MOF), a produce referral program implemented in partnership between a community-based organization (the Mid-Ohio Food Collective ["Food Collective"]) and an academic medical center (The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center [OSUWMC]).


STUDY DESIGN
We used an in-depth case study approach to identify challenges that arose during implementation of the MOF and related solutions via semistructured interviews with representatives of both organizations (May-September 2020).


METHODS
Key informants from OSUWMC (n = 20) and the Food Collective (n = 11) were identified using a combination of purposive and convenience sampling; they included administrators, project champions, clinical providers, and food pantry representatives. Interview transcripts were coded using a deductive dominant approach guided by a logic model aimed at determining the resources and activities relevant to the development of the partnership.


RESULTS
Challenges of cross-sector data sharing fit into 3 themes: data sharing regulations, data exchange capabilities, and cross-sector data integration. Overcoming these challenges required creative workarounds-for example, linking patients across organizations was done via establishment of a unique, partnership-specific patient identifier, which was incorporated into the health system's electronic health record for continuity.


CONCLUSIONS
Our findings suggest that current regulatory frameworks are misspecified to the growing interest in cross-sector partnerships between health care and community-based organizations. Future efforts to support these relationships should consider clarifying rules around data sharing and increasing Medicaid support for nonmedical, health-related social needs.
