The Trusted Exchange Framework and Common Agreement Recognized Coordinating Entity published updated standard operating procedures for the individual access services exchange protocol and new FAQs. The revised SOP removed references to "TEFCA IAS Consent" workflows and associated patient matching methodologies, retaining the ability for providers to verify requests for access and use of data. Updates were made based on recommendations that the AHA and other stakeholders provided to SOP proposals. The SOP will be effective Aug. 3, 2026.
