Readiness assessments, including thei1 Readiness Assessment, are not formally submitted to HITRUST QA. Instead, they are internal preparation exercises intended to help organizations identify gaps, plan remediation, and get ready for a validated assessment. QA reviews are reserved forvalidated assessments(e1, i1, and r2) that are submitted for certification or validated reports. Readiness results can be used by management or shared with business partners informally, but they are not validated by HITRUST. This distinction preserves HITRUST QA resources for validated assurance activities and emphasizes that readiness is anorganizational self-assessmentstep.
