Proven Standards, Trusted Data Exchange Founded in 1995, the Electronic Healthcare Network Accreditation Commission (EHNAC) was created as an independent, federally recognized, standards development organization and tax-exempt, 501(c)(6) non-profit accrediting body designed to improve transactional quality, operational efficiency and data security in healthcare. In 2023, EHNAC merged with and into DirectTrust, the non-profit, vendor-neutral alliance dedicated to instilling trust in the exchange of health data. EHNAC now serves as the accreditation and certification body for the DirectTrust organization.
