In this episode of Kno2fy, Brendan Keeler and Matt Becker join co-hosts Therasa Bell and Whitney Cole, once again, to break down what’s really happening with TEFCA, federal policy, and the future of healthcare networks.

From shifting priorities in Washington to the removal of the TEFCA Manner Exception, this conversation explores how interoperability is evolving from a regulatory framework into a competitive, market-driven ecosystem. But through all the change, one thing remains constant: the need for trust at scale.

If you’re trying to make sense of where interoperability is heading, and what it means for your organization, this episode cuts through the noise to focus on what actually matters.
