Verified steps

  1. Inventory which networks a trading partner is reachable on: Carequality Interoperability Framework, eHealth Exchange, and/or a TEFCA QHIN, since major networks currently operate in parallel during the transition
  2. Where a partner is reachable only via TEFCA, connect through a Designated QHIN (eHealth Exchange has achieved TEFCA QHIN designation) rather than assuming legacy Carequality connectivity alone suffices
  3. Query current network directories rather than a cached participant list, since organization reachability shifts as EHR vendors migrate customers to their own QHIN infrastructure
  4. Track which exchange purposes and query/FHIR capabilities are supported over each network path, since capabilities can differ between legacy Carequality exchange and TEFCA QHIN-to-QHIN exchange
  5. Design for dual-stack operation (legacy network plus TEFCA) rather than a hard cutover, since no blanket sunset date for legacy Carequality/eHealth Exchange connectivity has been established
