Meaningful use stages 1 and 2 fall short of implementing the interoperability among electronic health records that is necessary to facilitate information exchange and develop a robust health data infrastructure, according to a new report from a taskforce assembled by the MITRE Corporation, Health Data Management<
Electronic health record satisfaction among primary care physicians has increased over the past six years, according to a report from Black Book Rankings, Clinical Innovation & Technology reports.
As of the end of February, 458,137 eligible hospitals and professionals were participating in the meaningful use program, officials said during a Health IT Policy Committee meeting last week, Government Health IT reports.
Two thousand primary care surveyed EHR users narrowed down an elite group of systems vendors across eighteen probing key performance indicators from a field of over 400 qualified healthcare software firms. As thousands of primary care practices still scramble to select and implement records systems, current adopters identify the firms that delivered on implementation success, productivity, outcomes, connectivity, meaningful use achievement and crucial stimulus fund requirements.

CMS has released updated specifications for electronic clinical quality measures used by eligible hospitals in 2014 under meaningful use Stage 2, as well as a new tool for measure developers, Health Data Managemen
Earlier this week, the Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society sent a letter to CMS Administrator Marilyn Tavenner with recommendations on how the agency can maximize the number of successful attesters to Stage 2 of the meaningful use program this year, FierceEMR reports.
Specialty physicians who are late adopters of electronic health records could face challenges meeting patient portal requirements under Stage 2 of the meaningful use program, according to a study published in the American Journal of Medical Quality, Health
On Friday, HHS released its fiscal years 2014-2018 strategic plan, which highlights the meaningful use of health IT as a way to improve population health and health care outcomes, Clinical Innovation & Technology reports.
On Feb. 26, the Office of the National Coordinator for Health IT released a Notice of Proposed Rule Making to develop a Voluntary 2015 Edition Electronic Health Record Certification Program and update its previous certification criteria and rules.
Preliminary recommendations for stage 3 of the “meaningful use” EHR Incentive Program were released by an Office of the National Coordinator for Health IT (ONC) workgroup.
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services issued guidance for eligible professionals, eligible hospitals and critical access hospitals that are unable to implement the 2014 Edition of Certified Electronic Health Record technology in time to successfully demonstrate meaningful use for the 2014 reporting year.

HHS should establish performance measures for its meaningful use program that would help the agency "track progress toward program outcomes, such as health care quality, efficiency and patient safety," according to a new report from the Government Accountability Office, Health Data Management reports (Slabodkin, Health Data Management, 3/6).
The new ONC 2015 Certification contains a big win for accessibility.
This is great news for the growing number of seniors that use technology. Meaningful Use Certification will require a move up to WCAG 2.0 Level AA .
