certain specialty products and personal health records may follow different certification process http://www.federalregister.gov/OFRUplo... pg 30
Next announcemnt from ONC should be "establishing a governance mechanism for Nationwide Health Information Network (NHIN)"
ONC also announced Initial Set of Standards, Implementation Specifications, & Certification Criteria 4 EHR Tech http://www.federalregister.gov/OFRUplo...
#MU documents fav quote "Info on costs & benefits of adopting systems specifically meeting requirements in rule does not yet exist" pg 445
@PracticeFusion doc's won't even be required to submit CPOE electronically (apparently just enter order but it doesn't transmit to lab)
@ahier better link to Consumer Partnership for e-health - http://www.nationalpartnership.org/site... represents 127 million consumers
@ahier totally agree - suggest we work with Consumer Partnership for e-health - http://www.nationalpartnership.org/site... AARP, AFLCIO, consumer union,
ARggg " we propose that it will not include electronic transmittal of order to pharmacy, lab or diagnostic imaging center"
Thanks Brian! @ahier " Spending evening reading " 500 plus pages CMS rule on Health IT ^ My biggest initial concern patient-centered care 2
@eHealthDC fyi - GHC has 100% adoption by providers and highest use of EHR (portal) by consumers anywhere http://www.commonwealthfund.org/~...
@eHealthDC they failed to grasp patient centered design. Simple example labs after 96 hours? 580,000 get them in real time at GHC
- We do not propose to include “Provide access to patient-specific education resources upon request.” http://www.federalregister.gov/OFRUplo... pg 61
new CMS rule pg 108 " also excluded transmission of orders from definition of “CPOE use” no radiology or path either.
Conf Call - ONC Fundamental failure of #meaningful use" to put consumer / patient at center of system - recipient of data isn't co-creator
"consumer" only mentioned 3 times in over 500 pages of new CMS rule of meaningful use of health IT conference call. #meaingful use
CMS estimates have dropped for meaningful use reimbursement to 14 to 27 billion because they expect less providers to participate
Interim rule on meaninful use is over 500 pages long.. http://www.federalregister.gov/OFRUplo... link to Federal Register
ONC conference call 80% of all patients will be provided copy of health info within 48 hours #HITPOL #Meaningful
Official ONC #meaingful use CMS proposed rule & fact sheets http://www.cms.hhs.gov/Recover... ONC’s interim final rule at http://healthit.hhs.gov/portal....
Official Press release HHS CMS and ONC Issue Regulations Proposing a Definition of ‘Meaningful Use’ and Standards http://www.hhs.gov/news...
