The January 2027 CMS-0057 deadline is fast approaching. Some health plans are deep into execution, others are running pilots, and many haven’t yet made key decisions. No matter where you are, one thing is certain: the runway is shrinking, and the stakes are high.
At Onyx, we’ve already taken customers live on CMS-aligned APIs and our products are production-ready today. Through these deployments, we’ve seen firsthand what works, what stalls, and how to get payers live quickly while avoiding unnecessary cost and complexity.
Onyx FastTrack builds on that experience—helping health plans stand up the required APIs on time and establish a scalable foundation for future growth and innovation.
FastTrack brings together three complementary programs, each designed to accelerate readiness and execution:
FastTrack 0057 Readiness Check
Start with clarity. Our Readiness Check is a complimentary, one-week review that gives you a clear picture of your CMS-0057 readiness.
Our experts evaluate your APIs, workflows, and security practices, highlight potential risks, and deliver a tailored Readiness Report with clear recommendations to prepare for CMS-0057. Whether you’re just starting or already underway, the Readiness Check provides confidence that you’re on the right path—and clarity on where to go next.
FastTrack 0057 Proof Run
Prove readiness in production. Our Proof Run delivers a working Provider Directory in just a few weeks, giving health plans a live environment to validate performance, integration, and data quality.
It also functions as a data health check—showing where your provider directory data is accurate, where it’s incomplete, and how those issues affect compliance. For many organizations, the Proof Run provides the tangible evidence needed to move forward with confidence.
FastTrack 0057 Playbooks
Stay on track with proven guides. Available exclusively to Onyx customers, our Playbooks turn CMS-0057 requirements into clear, step-by-step actions across Patient Access, Provider Access, Payer-to-Payer Exchange, and ePA.
Built from real-world implementations, they combine technical and operational best practices to help teams avoid false starts, accelerate timelines, and reduce risk.
The Onyx Playbooks are a trusted resource for health plans that want to move faster and go live with confidence.
Moving Faster, with Less Risk
CMS-0057 can feel complex, but it’s also a chance to strengthen data quality, improve operations, and set a stronger foundation for the future. FastTrack is designed to help health plans take advantage of that opportunity.
Through the Readiness Check, Proof Run, and Playbooks, FastTrack offers a practical, proven approach to CMS-0057. Whether you’re just getting started or looking to validate the path you’re already on, FastTrack provides the clarity and confidence to move forward—on time and with less risk.
