What is ONC Certification?

ONC Certification graphic

The Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ONC) certification is a program that ensures that electronic health records (EHRs) meet certain standards for interoperability and security. It is designed to help healthcare providers adopt and use EHRs more effectively, and to promote the widespread adoption of EHRs as a means of improving the quality and efficiency of healthcare. To be certified, an EHR must meet a set of standards and criteria that have been developed by the ONC in collaboration with other organizations and stakeholders in the healthcare industry. These standards cover a range of areas, including the exchange of health information(g10), patient access to their own health data (also g10), and the protection of sensitive health information(d1,d13,g12). By achieving ONC certification, EHRs can demonstrate that they meet these standards and are ready for use in a wide variety of healthcare settings.
