3 What is Meaningful Use? American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009/Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Information (ARRA/HITECH) Act, established programs under Medicare and Medicaid to provide incentive payments to eligible professionals that demonstrate meaningful use of certified electronic health record (EHR) technology. HITECH Act allocates 19 billion for the adoption, upgrade, and or implementation of EHR technology. These incentive programs (Medicare and Medicaid) are designed to support eligible professionals during health IT transition. Simply, "meaningful use" means providers must demonstrate that they're using certified EHR technology in ways that can be measured in quality and in quantity.
4 Meaningful Use-Objectives Meaningful Use is Using Certified EHR Technology to: Improve Quality, Safety, Efficiency and Reduce Health Disparities: Use of EHR Computerized order entry Electronic Prescribing/refill automation Record Problem list, medications, allergies, etc Engage patients and families: Patient portals and electronic copies of After Visit Summaries Educational material Improve Care Coordination Medication Reconciliation Exchange of Data with external Providers Improve Population and Public Health Electronic Reporting to Registries Maintain Patient Privacy and Security

CMS offers third party registration. Required for third party registration Identity & Access Management Account (I&A) Association with the eligible providers NPI Eligible providers can register without having implementing certified EHR. Eligible Professionals cannot register for a Medicaid EHR Incentive Program until their state's program has launched and the state's site has opened.

EHR technology must be tested and certified by an Office of the National Coordinator (ONC) Authorized Testing and Certification Body (ATCB) in order for a provider to qualify for EHR incentive payments. You do not need to have certified EHR technology in place to register for the EHR incentive programs. However before you can receive an EHR incentive payment you must successfully demonstrate meaningful use of a certified EHR For a list of certified EHRs go to the ONC website CERTIFIED EHR
