Set Up an OHIN or TEFCA and QHIN Connection

This topic provides the steps for setting up a connection between your organization and OHIN.

OHIN can facilitate information exchange between your organization and other provider organizations that participate in OHIN or providers outside of OHIN if your organization is authorized to use OHIN as your QHIN.
