Understanding The Importance of MARS-E Compliance
Minimum Acceptable Risk Standards for Exchanges (MARS-E) is a set of guidelines developed to help secure sensitive data within health exchanges. Established and overseen by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), these standards protect personally identifiable information (PII) and other sensitive data used in state and federal health insurance marketplaces. Compliance with MARS-E is not only a regulatory requirement but also a vital component in maintaining the security and privacy of health information.
