Verified steps

  1. Register the organization as a Participant or Sub-participant with a recognized QHIN (e.g., CommonWell, eHealth Exchange, Carequality, Kno2, Epic) and complete the required TEFCA Common Agreement onboarding and identity assurance requirements
  2. Configure the connection to the QHIN's FHIR exchange endpoint, including the required TEFCA authorization headers identifying the Participant, purpose of use (treatment), individual access, and patient consent acknowledgment
  3. Submit a patient-level FHIR query (e.g., Patient/$everything or targeted resource queries) to the QHIN, which federates the query to connected networks and aggregates responses from responding organizations
  4. Process the aggregated FHIR Bundle response, handling duplicate resources from multiple responding organizations by using provenance metadata and source identifiers to deduplicate and attribute data
  5. Implement TEFCA-required audit logging capturing the query requestor identity, patient, purpose of use, timestamp, responding organizations, and data classes returned for regulatory compliance
