Project Overview

The Trusted Exchange Framework and Common Agreement (TEFCA) has 3 goals: (1) to establish a universal governance, policy, and technical floor for nationwide interoperability; (2) to simplify connectivity for organizations to securely exchange information to improve patient care, enhance the welfare of populations, and generate health care value; and (3) to enable individuals to gather their health care information.

TEFCA Components:

• Common Agreement

• Trusted Exchange Framework

• QHIN Technical Framework (QTF)

High-Level Scope

Establish a TEFCA compliant method for eCR documents to APHL including connectivity, transmission and dataflow of eCR documents leveraging a dedicated TEFCA approved QHIN.

Configure eCR data integration and infrastructure with eHealth Exchange as a candidate Qualified Health Information Networks (QHINs) to continue in the Trusted Exchange Framework and Common Agreement (TEFCA) onboarding, testing, and designation process for eCR.
