As one of the first Designated QHINsTM, KONZA National Network has been part of the process to operationalize the Trusted Exchange Framework and Common Agreement (TEFCASM).
Partnering with the Recognized Coordinating Entity® (RCETM), The Sequoia Project, one of the primary objectives of TEFCA is to bring health information networks together as QHINs to serve as central health data exchange partners that allow providers access to complete patient health records no matter their location.
KONZA National Network enables the sharing of clinical information at the point of care, while supporting transformative value-based payment models, care management and data analytics. As a credible, trusted and strategic partner for patients, physicians, healthcare providers and facilities across the country, KONZA provides 14 years of health information exchange (HIE) expertise.
KONZA partners with State Medical Societies and Independent Physician Associations (IPAs) to provide physician-led and governed health information exchanges. Learn more about KONZA’s services here.
