Active Care Relationship Service (ACRS) - MiHIN

The Active Care Relationship Service (ACRS) enables organizations to identify patient-provider attributions (called active care relationships) associating a particular patient with health providers at that organization.  For health providers, an �active care relationship� indicates a patient has been seen by a health provider within the past 24 months, or is considered part of the health providers� active patient population they are responsible for managing. For payers, an active care relationship indicates a patient is an eligible member of a health plan. These attributions are used to accurately route transitions of care and other notifications for a patient to all members of their care team.
