Microsoft’s Azure AD is a cloud-based directory and identity management system designed to protect information exchanges. For this release, when you attempt to access the Centricity APIs to generate CCDA documents, Azure AD verifies that you and others within your organization are authorized to do so.

In computer programming, an application program interface (API) is a set of routines, protocols, and tools used to build software applications and promote cross-system interactions. These ‘messenger’ components execute user requests across systems and servers external to your on premise Centricity application, allowing them to collaborate. In simpler terms, APIs take requests to perform actions, convey requests to external systems and servers, and then return the actions requested.

When a provider makes a request in a Centricity system to generate a transition of care document. The clinic server relays the request to Azure AD, which authenticates access to the API server. If authentication is successful, the API server is accessed and supporting CCDA 2.1 APIs are retrieved. The APIs ‘place the order’ within the Centricity system to generate the transition of care document and generates the requested file. In this way, Azure AD provides the layer of security required to ensure secure healthcare information exchanges.

GE API Technology supports Requirements for CDA 2.1   Clinical Visit Summaries  Transitions Of Care  CDA Exports  Activate Patient Access  Provides the level of security and authentication required to support healthcare IT solutions.  Azure and GE API Technology meets ONC regulations to support advanced and secure healthcare information transfers.  The current 1.1 format is the default CCDA version upon upgrading until you switch to the new format .

 Active Directory for user authentication  Azure Subscription: Business-to-Business (B2B) Azure Active Directory ◦ (AAD) The current 1.1 format is the default CCDA ◦ Azure AD Connect installed on AD servers version upon upgrading until you switch to the new – To sync onsite Active Directory users to your Azure AD format. Free subscription available. Details at: azure.microsoft.com engage.gehealthcare.com
