The Farmington-based Electronic Healthcare Network Accreditation Commission (EHNAC), a nonprofit, federally recognized standards development organization and accrediting body for organizations that electronically exchange healthcare data, has accredited the first two organizations for its Data Registry Accreditation Program (DRAP).
The two are Alpha II LLC and FIGmd Inc.
In response to the privacy and security challenges of healthcare data submission, the comprehensive third-party review provides an additional level of confidence for organizations to demonstrate the rigor and structure of the registry database, EHNAC said.
The program is designed for data registries that provide data services to their stakeholders, which can include health information exchanges, regional extension centers and other healthcare providers, payers, and other government and state entities.
Alpha II and FIGmd were the first to undergo evaluation on their compliance with the criteria and receive full accreditation status for the two-year timeframe.
