Our History

The Michigan Data Collaborative was established to address the need for a statewide healthcare claims repository. Since then, MDC has grown to be a trusted data partner across the state of Michigan. Our work has expanded to provide data solutions for providers, health-related organizations, and physician organizations throughout the state.

Now

MDC offers a highly secure environment for robust healthcare data aggregation and integration. We developed and now maintain a statewide multi-payer claims and clinical data database, and we provide measure creation and report delivery solutions. MDC continues to work with our partners to add value to the healthcare IT infrastructure and to help improve care delivery throughout the state of Michigan. Some of our current partners include:

  • Michigan Collaborative for Type 2 Diabetes (MCT2D)
  • Inspiring Health Advances in Lung Care (INHALE)
  • Michigan Health Information Network Shared Services (MiHIN)
  • Michigan Institute for Care Management & Transformation (MICMT)

Our Future

MDC's goal is to collaborate with other organizations to provide solutions for the evolving and expanding healthcare data needs in our state. Look for news about future projects on our website!
