ONC Hub IWeb and PHC Hub Overview

The Office of the National Coordinator (ONC) sponsored a pilot project to connect two states through a CDC-initiated hub. The project converts the point-to-point data exchange to HL7 via the CDC sponsored hub. The connection allows inter-state HL7 message exchange using best practice specifications. Washington and Oregon were selected as candidate states due to their existing point-to-point exchange and sharing agreement.

To facilitate connectivity between Washington and the ONC HUB, additional functionality is required for IWeb to allow management of the ONC HUB profile. To set up connectivity, you must:

1. Create a KeyStore and TrustStore for TLS client authentication.
2. Create an ONC IWeb Exchange Partner Organization.
3. Create an ONC IWeb Organization User Account.
4. Create an ONC IWeb Remote Registry Configuration.
5. Configure IWeb User HL7 Settings.
6. Create an ONC Import Profile.
7. Configure ONC Application Settings.
