Healthie: ONC Certification
The ONC Health IT Certification Program (Certification Program) ensures that Certified Health Information Technology meets the technological capability, functionality, and security requirements adopted by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). EHR providers, like Healthie, can volunteer to have the ONC review their platform for certification.
Healthie’s Early EHR certification is 2015 compliant and has been certified by an ONC-ACB in accordance with the applicable certification criteria adopted by the Secretary of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.
Via Healthie, providers will be able to utilize key functionalities including direct messaging, reimbursements for meaningful use (eCQMs and MIPS) and FHIR as a result of Healthie meeting ONC certification requirements.
