      How To Create a HITRUST Self-Assessment in MyVCM

      This how-to guide will describe how to export the HITRUST controls from MYCSF and import them into MyVCM to prepare for your HITRUST Validated Assessment. *This is the first step in conducting HITRUST Readiness in MyVCM.

       

      In MyCSF (Note: A HITRUST MyCSF subscription is required)

      1. Log into MyCSF: https://portal.mycsf.net/

      3.    Select the Illustrative Procedures Report in the right-hand column of reports, then select which MyCSF object you want to pull the report for
        • If you don’t have a MyCSF object set up yet and would like some help, ask your CSM to put you in touch with one of our Professional Services consultants for a quick (complimentary) working session!
      4. After you have saved the CSV file, open it in Excel and re-save it as an excel file or just rename it to have the .xlsx extension.
        • Please note this will NOT work if you export the excel file from MyCSF, as the MyCSF formatting for excel files is not flat.
