The NAMSS PASS® Electronic Connectivity Program (ECP) helps health care entities (HCE) and vendors connect their credentialing-related software systems to the NAMSS PASS® database.
The Electronic Connectivity Program consists of an Application Programming Interface (API) that allows participants to directly upload data, query practitioners, and seamlessly access their NAMSS PASS® accounts directly from their credentialing systems.
The Electronic Connectivity Program is open to vendors and healthcare systems and is provided by NAMSS PASS® at no additional charge.
