DirectTrust and CARIN Alliance Announce CARIN-CFA Accreditation Recognized by CMS as Evaluation Pathway for Participation in the Medicare App Library

We are super excited to announce that the CARIN Code of Conduct has been approved as one of the two pathways for app vetting within the CMS Health Tech Ecosystem initiative. This milestone reflects eight years of dedicated development, evangelization, and education around the Code of Conduct. We're grateful to all CARIN members for their contributions and look forward to seeing how this work continues to strengthen and expand consumer access to their health data.
