EHNAC’s Health Information Exchange (HIE) accreditation program was first released in October of 2010. It was developed through a process that included the publication of an HIE Market Scan White Paper and numerous meetings with an advisory group of experts from across the HIE industry. EHNAC continues to enhance this program, and in January of 2012 released version 1.1 .

As part of EHNAC’s commitment to provide educational opportunities, on January 25, 2012 EHNAC held the webinar, ‘Dispelling the Myth that all HIE’s are Created Equal’. View slides and webcast. Topics included:
