INTRODUCTION TO EHR (ELECTRONIC HEALTH RECORDS) & MEANINGFUL USE (MU)

OnDecember20,2009,CMS(TheCentersforMedicareandMedicaid)and ONC(OfficeoftheNa1

tionalCoordinatorforHealthInformationTechnology)issuedtworegulationsthatlaidthefoundationforimprovingquality,efficiencyandsafetythrough“meaningfuluse”ofcertifiedelectronic
healthrecords(EHR)technology.
TheCMS’ regulation:
•DefinesandspecifieshowtodemonstrateMUofEHRtechnology,whichisapre-requisiteforreceivingtheMedicareorMedicaidincentivepayments.
•OutlinestheproposedpaymentmethodologiesforboththeMedicareandMedicaidincentiveprograms.
TheONC regulation:
•Setsinitialstandards,
•Implementsspecificationsand
•CreatescertificationcriteriaforEHRtechnologythatshouldenhancetheinteroperability,functionality,utilityandsecurityofhealthinformationtechnology.
The Recovery Act specifies the following 3 components of Meaningful Use:
1.UseofcertifiedEHRinameaningfulmannerwhichincludes:
a.theabilitytoelectronicallycapturehealthinformationinacodedformat,
b.usageofthatinformationtotrackkeyclinicalconditions,
c.implementationofclinicaldecisionsupporttoolstofacilitatediseaseandmedicationmanagement,and

2.UseofcertifiedEHRtechnologyforelectronicexchangeofhealthinformationtoimprovequalityofhealthcarewhichincludes:
