How were URAC’s Standards developed?
The standards were developed by a broad-based committee of health Web site experts. The committee included health care providers, consumers, and health Web site companies. The committee met over the period of a year to develop and refine the standards. URAC also released the standards for public review, so that all interested parties had an opportunity to comment.
