The CAQH Index Advisory Council represents organizations across the healthcare industry, including medical and dental plans and providers, vendors/clearinghouses, government and research experts. The role of the Council is to: 

• Advise CAQH on research measures;
• Represent unique industry perspectives to enhance findings and future reports; and 
• Promote industry participation in the CAQH Index. 

Purpose & Vision

The CAQH Index was created as an industry-wide resource for tracking the transition from a paper- and phone-based system to an electronically-enabled system. The CAQH Index raises awareness of potential savings and seeks to facilitate public-private sector collaboration to overcome barriers with electronic processing. Findings from the 2014 CAQH Index report show that the healthcare industry could save billions each year by continuing the shift from manual to electronic administrative transactions.
