### Drummond G10+ FHIR API powered by Touchstone
In July 2022, <a target = "_blank" href = "https://www.healthit.gov/buzz-blog/healthit-certification/new-testing-method-available-for-standardized-api-criterion">ONC announced</a> the approval of the Drummond Group’s <a target = "_blank" href = "https://www.drummondgroup.com/compliance/payer-and-patient-access-certification/">Drummond G10+ FHIR API powered by Touchstone</a> tool, a new alternative test method (ATM) for testing conformance to ONC’s §170.315(g)(10) Standardized API for patient and population services certification criterion. Through this new ATM, software developers will now have a new option for conformance testing in addition to the previously approved Inferno (g)(10) Standardized API Test Kit. The approval of Drummond’s testing method continues ONC’s mission to further diversify the suite of test methods used as part of the ONC Health IT Certification Program.
