By July 2021, all Medicare Advantage, Medicaid, CHIP and ACA plans must provide a Patient Access application programming interface (API) and Provider Directory API, as mandated in the final CMS/ONC interoperability rule as part of the 21st Century Cures Act.
For health plans, there are many considerations when determining your API strategy:
