Carequality Connections. 15.1 Applicant is responsible for identifying those of its customers, participants or other constituent entities, if any, that wish to be included in the Carequality Directory as Carequality Connections. Applicant may delegate this responsibility to its current Carequality Connections or their intermediary entities as appropriate. Before listing any entity in the Carequality Directory as its Carequality Connection, Applicant must confirm that the entity does not duplicate, in terms of the healthcare information content it provides, another data source that is already a Carequality Connection of a different Implementer, for the same Use Case, and shall not list in the Carequality Directory as its Carequality Connection any such duplicative entity. For example, if a provider organization is a Carequality Connection of a health information exchange (HIE) and, via the HIE, provides access to information ultimately sourced from its electronic health record (EHR) system, then that provider organization may not also be a Carequality Connection of its EHR vendor to provide access to substantially similar data. As a further example, if a provider organization uses two different EHR systems within different parts of its enterprise, these two EHR systems are distinct data sources and are not duplicative for purposes of this Section, and these systems may be represented separately in the Carequality Directory by different Implementers. For clarity, Carequality Connections are permitted to change Implementers, but may not have an active listing in the Directory by two Implementers for the same Use Case at the same time. Applicant shall cooperate with other Implementers to avoid duplication of Directory listings in such cases, and shall make reasonable efforts to facilitate transitions from one Implementer to another. Applicant acknowledges that it must supply information that Carequality indicates is necessary to complete a Carequality Directory entry for each Carequality Connection, in order for that Carequality Connection to be listed in the Carequality Directory. Carequality Implementation Guides may specify particular technical architectures or approaches to maintaining information about participating Carequality Connections and making it available as part of the Carequality Directory, in which case Applicant shall comply with the requirements of the relevant Implementation Guides. Carequality expressly relies upon Applicant to maintain information about its Carequ...
