What’s all this Meaningful Use stuff?
The Compelling Why…..of HITECH
Why does America need to
modernize using Health IT?
What is America doing to modernize its
Healthcare System through Health IT?

2009 Hitech Act-ARRA
 The Hitech Act of the American Recovery & Reinvestment Act (ARRA)
was signed into law by President Obama in Feb. 2009
“It's an investment that will take the long overdue step of computerizing America's
medical records, to reduce the duplication and waste that costs
billions of healthcare dollars and medical errors that cost thousands of lives
each year. ... We have done more in 30 days to advance the cause of healthcare reform than this country has done in an entire decade.“
February 17, 2009
 Appointed the Center for Medicare & Medicaid (CMS) to govern the
clinical side of the program
 The Office of the National Coordinator (ONC)
governs the technical side: certification of
the EHR at the code level.
 Both sets of guidelines must be met to qualify for MU
 Stage One Guidelines: Released July 2010.
 Stage Two Guidelines: Preliminary Release
Feb. 2012, Final Release: Aug, 2012
2009 Hitech Act-ARRA
 Three progressive stages of “meaningful use” over next 5+
years
– Stage 1: Capture and track basic data, communication and
coordination, sets stage for electronic quality reporting
– Stage 2: Quality improvement at the point of care, clinical
data exchange
– Stage 3: Advanced clinical decision support to promote
safety, quality and efficiency (e.g. national high priority
conditions, patient access to self‐management tools,
comprehensive patient data and improving population
health)
 Medicare $$ Incentives: payment for “Meaningful Use”(MU) of
an electronic health record (EHR)-by Hospital or Physician
 Medicaid $$ Incentives: Demonstrate “AIU” -Adoption,
Implementation, Upgrade (first year only), or “Meaningful Use”
Eligibility
 Medicare Fee for Service, Medicare Advantage and
Medicaid providers
 Eligible Professionals (EP) include: Doctors of Medicine or
Osteopathy, Dentists, Podiatrists, Optometrists and
Chiropractors. Medicaid also includes NPs, Certified Nurse
Midwives & PAs.
 Hospital based EPs are not included (90% or > services
are provided on an Inpatient or ED setting).
 Eligible Hospitals include: Acute Care Hospitals and
Critical Access Hospitals, including Emergency
Departments(pts being admitted or in an extended
Observation status).
The Carrot….
•Eligible Providers:
•Medicare Incentives: ~$44K/eligible provider/5 years
•Medicaid Incentives: ~$64K/eligible provider/6 years
…….and the Stick
•Hospitals: Incentive calculated based on cost reporting to CMS
•After 2015, Medicare penalties for Hospitals and EPs
Health Outcomes Priorities
• Improve quality, safety, efficiency
and reduce health disparities
• Engage patients and families in their
health care
• Improve care coordination
• Improve population & public health
• Ensure adequate privacy and security
protection of personal health information

What’s Coming with Stage 2?
• Goes into effect October 1, 2013.
• Thresholds and complexity increases
• Second year added to stage 2 with a
90 day quarterly measurement period;
no change in payment model
• 2015 Payment adjustments confirmed
(complete attestation by Oct 2014 to
avoid penalties)
• Hospitals-Report on 19 out of 22 measures
EPs-Report on 20 out of 23 measures
What’s Coming with Stage 2?
• Focus on Patient Engagement-Portal
access; view, download or transmit
• Exclusions will not count toward Menu
Items
• Batch reporting for EPs
• CPOE changes in denominator,
addition of radiology and labs
• Addition of electronic notes, capturing
care team, functional and cognitive
status in the summary or care.
• Better Alignment of Quality measures against other
CMS requirements: ACO, PQRS, CHIPRA etc

Take Home Concepts
 Meaningful Use and EHR adoption is a clinical
care initiative supported by IT, not an IT
program. It will forever change how we provide
service to our patients.
 Our success or failure will depend in great part
on our ability to define and standardize our best
practice clinical workflows throughout our
system.
 Physician and clinical operation’s leadership will
be crucial in each clinic’s, service line’s and
facility’s success or failure.
