The New England Healthcare EDI Network (NEHEN) will be the premier innovator in bringing best practices with business and technical solutions to the healthcare industry for payer-provider transaction processing.

As a member-owned organization, NEHEN emphasizes collaboration, a federated model, and a standards-based electronic healthcare data exchange.

NEHEN's objectives are to remove barriers to business process automation, improve the member and patient experience, simplify the complexity of healthcare operations, and reduce overall costs for all participants.

NEHEN will achieve its mission by continuously improving its internal processes and by making its technical solutions more robust to maintain its low operating cost. At the same time, NEHEN will make its lessons learned as an “all player” solution available to the rest of the industry, so that cooperative business process management and technology deployment can be simple, quick, efficient, integrated, and useful in solving problems once, for all stakeholders - payers, providers, software and service partners, and patients.
