Prepare with confidence
& build a stronger program.

The new ARC-AMPE framework replaces MARS-E and raises the bar for how ACA, Medicaid, and partner entities manage security and privacy. It's more than a compliance update — it's an opportunity to modernize and reduce risk. nuHarbor helps you get there with readiness assessments, compliance support, and ongoing program management aligned to CMS requirements.

Stay aligned with
CMS deadlines

We help you build and maintain an annual compliance calendar, keep artifacts current, and ensure nothing falls through the cracks.

Reduce the burden
on internal teams

We support organizations that lack the time, staff, or specialized knowledge to meet the full scope of ARC-AMPE compliance.

Clarity and confidence
in your program

We bring deep understanding of what’s changed from MARS-E to ARC-AMPE, providing a clear, actionable roadmap for achieving and maintaining compliance.

Tailored support for
complex environments

Whether you're managing hybrid infrastructure, legacy systems, or cloud platforms, we tailor our support to fit your environment and compliance obligations.

What You Get

We handle the complexity.
You stay compliant.

ARC-AMPE brings significant changes to how privacy, risk, and security are managed.
We provide the expertise and structured support to keep your program on track — whether you’re transitioning from MARS-E or managing ongoing CMS requirements.

Infrastructure and application
penetration testing

Meet annual and change control testing requirements with our expert team, covering infrastructure and application environments to satisfy ARC-AMPE standards.

Policy and documentation
development

We create or update your critical CMS artifacts — including your SSPP, PPP, Incident Response Plan, Contingency Plan, and supporting policies.

Compliance calendar
& submission support

We keep you aligned with CMS timelines through quarterly POA&M updates, RAFs, ATC submissions, and ongoing compliance tracking.

Controls assessments
& audit preparation

Annual security and privacy assessments (SAP, SAR, SAW) validate the strength of your program, surface any gaps before they become findings, and ensure you're fully prepared for CMS review.

Third-party risk
& privacy training

We evaluate vendor compliance, develop Partner ISAs, meet SR control family requirements, and deliver role-based awareness training aligned to ARC-AMPE using KnowBe4.

Managed security
& Pub 1075

Round-the-clock monitoring, vulnerability management, and incident detection keep controls strong, with Pub 1075 integration available when needed.
