Pillars of Meaningful Use
Improve quality, safety, efficiency, and reduce health disparities
•
•
•
•
Provide access to comprehensive patient health data for patient’s health care
team
Use evidence-based order sets and CPOE
Apply clinical decision support at the point of care
Generate lists of patients who need care and use them to reach out to patients
Engage patients and families
•
Provide patients and families with timely access to data, knowledge, and tools to
make informed decisions and to manage their health
Improve care coordination
•
Exchange meaningful clinical information among professional health care team
Improve population and public health
•
Submit immunization, syndromic surveillance and reportable disease data to
public health agencies
Ensure privacy and security protection for personal health information
•
•
Protect confidential information through operating policies, procedures, and
technologies
Provide transparency of data sharing to patient

Why S2MU Matters
• Stage 2 Meaningful Use serves as a foundation for
other health care innovation initiatives
• S2MU is a glide path to:
• Accountable care organizations
• Medical home
• Payment reform initiatives

Medicare Payment Adjustments
Medicare EPs who are not
meaningful users will be subject
to a payment adjustment
beginning on January 1, 2015.

12
Medicare Payment Adjustments
EPs who first demonstrated meaningful use in
2011 or 2012 must demonstrate meaningful use
for a full year in 2013 to avoid payment
adjustments in 2015. They must continue to
demonstrate meaningful use every year to avoid
payment adjustments in subsequent years.

How do CQMs relate to the CMS
Incentive Programs?
Although reporting CQMs is no longer a core objective
of the EHR Incentive Programs, all providers are
required to report on CQMs in order to demonstrate
Meaningful Use.
In 2014 and beyond, reporting programs (i.e., PQRS,
eRx reporting) will be streamlined in order to reduce
provider burden.

Alignment Among Programs
2014 represents
CMS’s commitment to
aligning quality
measurement and
reporting among
programs, including
Hospital Inpatient
Quality Reporting
Program, PQRS,
CHIPRA, and ACO
Programs.

Reporting CQMs in 2014 and Beyond
Beginning in 2014, all Medicare-eligible providers in their
second year and beyond of demonstrating meaningful
use must electronically report their CQM data to CMS.
Medicaid providers will electronically report their CQM
data to their state.

• EP’s – Calendar Year
• EH’s – Fiscal Year
(Medicare Providers three month period must be tied to quarter)
• All subsequent reporting period will be entire year

Recommended Core CQM’s
For both adult and pediatric providers, CMS is
recommending certain core CQM’s for providers
These recommendations were based on the following:
• Conditions contributing to morbidity and mortality
• Conditions representing national public health priorities
• Conditions common to health disparities
• Conditions driving healthcare costs
• Measures allowing agencies to more effectively measure quality care
• Measures that include patient and/or caregiver engagement

Reporting Specifications
Each eCQM can be described in 3 different ways
depending on the intended use:
HTML - This is a human readable format so that the
user can understand both how the elements are
defined and the underlying logic used to calculate the
measure.
XML – This is a computer readable format which enables
the automated creation of queries against an EHR or
other operational data store for quality reporting.
Value Sets – Value sets are the specific codes used by
developers to program the system to accurately
capture patient data in the EHR system.
