As each HITRUST assessment traverses the assessment workflow, the Assessed Entity and External Assessor are notified of the status of the assessment via notifications on the homepage of MyCSF and email. There are two types of assessment status notifications: workflow phase notifications and summary email notifications.

Workflow Phase Notifications

Workflow phase notifications are sent to the Assessed Entity and External Assessor as the assessment enters each phase of the assessment workflow. These notifications appear in the notification panel on the homepage of MyCSF and are also sent via email. The email notifications will contain more detailed information and instructions than the notification that appears in MyCSF.

Summary Email Notifications

Assessed Entities and External Assessors have the option to receive several summary email notifications in addition to the workflow phase notifications.
