EHNAC accredits claims clearinghouses and other transactions processors for meeting specific industry best practices. CORE is the Committee on Operating Rules for Information Exchange within CAQH. The initiative seeks to build industry consensus on voluntary tightening of the HIPAA standards to make health care financial/administrative transactions as easy as a bank ATM transaction.CAQH certifies clearinghouses, insurers and other entities for compliance with CORE transactions.
The partnership initially will focus on clearinghouses that want both CORE certification and EHNAC accreditation. Clearinghouses with one designation will receive a discounted fee when applying for the other designation.
More information is available at ehnac.org and caqh.org.
