9 Provider Survey #1 Results October
10 Provider Survey Background NH DHHS (Health Information Exchange Planning and Implementation Project) commissioned a survey to assess technology usage in NH practices with prescribing privileges (physicians and nurse practitioners) Goal: use information collected to inform multiple projects associated with federal and state health information technology and health information exchange priorities One survey component addressed the use of EHRs Survey implemented by NH Institute for Health Policy and Practice in June through August 2010 Sent to hospital-level information managers, practice-level information managers, and individual providers (some overlap) October
11 Provider Survey Respondents 108 organizations (representing 2,741 providers) responded*: Facility Type Count Practice Private Solo/Group Practice 62 57% Hospital Owned/Affiliated Practice 18 17% Community Health Center 11 10% Community Mental Health Center 7 6% Nursing Home 7 6% Home Health Care 3 3% TOTAL % October 2010 *9 surveys had incomplete information 11
12 Provider Survey Respondents High sampling of prescribers represented, but not all Some providers may not have received survey due to lack of a comprehensive method in New Hampshire for identifying prescribers at the individual or practice level Some surveys weren t returned Hospital, and stand-alone, larger practices within New Hampshire well represented Smaller, and independent, practices under-represented October
13 Provider Survey Key Findings 57% Of Respondents Used EHR In Some Form Primary Uses Least Common Uses Patient Demographics 97% Medication Histories 88% Patient Care Histories 86% Billing Integration 76% Point Of Care Functions Connections to Patient Drug 46% Formularies Best Practices 53% E-Prescribing 60% Radiology Results 64% Referrals & Consults 67% Connections Outside The Practice October

15 Provider Survey Barriers Mixed responses on several major barriers to adoption Security and privacy Whether providers would use systems Whether software/integration met practice needs Potential reasons Respondents might have been unclear on effects of technology adoption in these areas In large practices, these issues were being addressed by other staff members October

37 EHR Is More Than Just A System: HITECH Act requires: Meaningful Use Certified EHR technology used in a meaningful manner (example: electronic prescribing) Certified EHR technology connected in a manner that provides for the electronic exchange of health information to improve the quality of care In using certified EHR technology, the provider submits to the Secretary information on clinical quality measures and such other measures selected by the Secretary. October
38 Medicaid Requisites For Payment NH DHHS must verify/audit: Year 1: certified EHR technology has been adopted, implemented, and upgraded Year 2: 90-day reporting period in which Stage 1 meaningful use has been demonstrated Theoretical Years 3-6: meaningful use demonstrated on a full year basis for each year that payment is requested October
39 Meaningful Use Objectives and Measures Some criteria are optional; others required Core objectives mandatory; must be met Menu set select from a list of options with at least one population and public health measure If an objective/measure is not applicable, providers can present exception criteria to remove it from MU qualifying criteria Refer to CMS website for more information: October
40 Meaningful Use Stage 1 Objectives (Final Version)* Goal: build a strong foundation Establish functionalities in certified EHR technology to allow for continuous quality improvement and ease of information exchange Criteria: Electronically capture health information in a structured format Use information to track key clinical conditions Communicate information to coordinate care CMS to publish meaningful use clarifications shortly *The Final Rule addresses stages of MU only through 2014 October
41 Stage 1 Meaningful Use Criteria 15 core objectives Examples: CPOE, e-prescribing, record demographics, clinical quality measures 5 of 10 menu set objectives Examples: drug-formulary checks, incorporate clinical lab test results as structured data, generate lists of patients by specific conditions 6 Clinical Quality Measures 3 core and 3 of 38 from menu set October
42 Meaningful Use Stages 2 & 3 (Draft Versions) Stage 2 expected by 2011 Intent: Stage 1 optional criteria will be required as Stage 2 core criteria Goal: expand on Stage 1 to encourage use of health IT to have information follow the patient Focus: structured information exchange and continuous quality improvement at point of care Stage 3 Focus: promote improvements in quality, safety, and efficiency leading to improved health outcomes; access to comprehensive patient data through robust, patient-centered health information exchange October
