What is TEFCA?

TEFCA is a framework connecting health information networks (HINs) nationwide. It promotes secure and standardized data sharing between healthcare systems, public health agencies, payers, and patients. The framework also provides a foundation for the interoperability of electronic health records (EHRs), easing the flow of critical patient data between healthcare providers regardless of the platform or region.

By offering a common set of rules and technical requirements, TEFCA ensures that healthcare organizations can seamlessly and securely share data. Mindbowser enables smaller EHRs, EMRs, and healthcare apps to become TEFCA-ready by providing the infrastructure needed to align with data exchange and interoperability standards.

Icon of Outdated Legacy Systems

Faster Interoperability Adoption

TEFCA accelerates interoperability adoption, enabling providers to connect, share, and access critical health information effortlessly.

How TEFCA Works

TEFCA’s nationwide framework connects multiple Qualified Health Information Networks (QHINs), each representing a diverse range of healthcare entities. These include health systems, payers, public health agencies, and even small clinics, all of which can now share and receive health data across the TEFCA network.

The TEFCA Process

QHINs undergo rigorous security and technology assessments to ensure seamless interoperability, meeting strict standards for data protection, accessibility, and efficient healthcare information exchange across various networks and systems.

Once designated, QHINs establish secure connections, allowing participants to share healthcare data effortlessly across state, regional, and national boundaries while maintaining compliance with industry regulations and interoperability guidelines.

Mindbowser helps healthcare organizations integrate with QHINs, ensuring seamless and secure data exchange while aligning with TEFCA’s security and interoperability standards.

How Mindbowser Can Help with TEFCA Compliance

While Mindbowser cannot directly help organizations become QHINs, we specialize in helping smaller EHRs, EMRs, and healthcare applications become TEFCA-ready, ensuring they meet data exchange and interoperability requirements for seamless participation.

Why TEFCA is Crucial for Compliance

The healthcare industry is evolving rapidly, and TEFCA is the key to ensuring that healthcare providers stay ahead of the curve regarding federal data-sharing regulations. Compliance with TEFCA will soon be required to meet federal mandates and stay aligned with the national push for interoperability.

As the February 2026 compliance deadline approaches, healthcare organizations must act now to prepare for the future of secure data sharing.
