Background discussion
- The texts discusses EHR's as being Certified. It is not yet clear how this certification status will be awarded.
- The criteria herein are just for Stage 1 (beginning 2011). Further criteria are likely to be unveiled as the program progresses.
- Stage 2 will begin in 2013; Stage 3 in 2015
- Professionals must not only adopt/install a certified EHR, but must also demonstrate meaningful use. Thus just have a system capable of the features below will not be sufficient. They must be implemented and used.
All-in-one vs. Composite systems
Details from 45 CFR Part 170 describe the ability of a eligible system to be constructed from modules, and thus VistA doesn't have to meet all of the meaningful use criteria by itself.
Possible $ Bonus amounts
Up to $65k, maximum amount available under Medicaid
Up to $44k, maximum amount available under Medicare
