ONC Health IT Testing & Certification
Accredited Testing & Evaluation
Overview
Leidos has partnered with the Office of the National Coordinator (ONC) for Health Information Technology. Our pre-certification testing and post-certification reporting services allow Health IT developers to achieve and maintain certification of their Health IT effectively through a long-term partnership approach. Becoming ONC Certified demonstrates your EHR software has met criteria conformance to the technological capability, functionality, interoperability, and security requirements adopted by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to support their various programs.
The ONC Health IT Certification Program has been designed to be an iterative progression to promote innovation in the healthcare technology ecosystem to deliver improved information, more conveniently, to patients and clinicians. The ONC HIT Program continues building on past rulemakings to facilitate greater interoperability for multiple clinical health information purposes and enable health information exchange through new and enhanced certification criteria, standards, and implementation specifications.
The ONC HIT Program published the most recent 2015 Edition Cures Act Update in 2020 through the 21st Century Cures Act. The update further supports seamless and secure access, exchange, and use of electronic health information. It also includes a provision requiring that patients have electronic access to all their electronic health information, structured or unstructured, at no cost to the patient.
