Achieving r2 Certification demonstrates that Centauri is effectively managing information risk and maintaining a mature, sustainable security program.
“Trust and security are essential as healthcare data exchange becomes foundational and its safekeeping is central to our mission,” said Mike McNelis, CEO of Centauri Health Solutions. “Centauri is a deeply embedded, trusted partner serving complex and vulnerable populations, powering mission-critical operations that support coordination, decision-making, and compliance. Achieving HITRUST r2 Certification reinforces our commitment to protecting sensitive data and meeting the highest standards for security and privacy—so our customers and partners can confidently improve care and outcomes for the members and patients they serve.”
