The Oct. 1 deadline is approaching to begin reporting meaningful use of electronic health records (EHR) for fiscal year 2015, NRHA and 16 other national associations
sent a message
to Patricia Burwell, HHS Secretary to implement more realistic Meaningful Use timelines.
The linked letter states, “only 143 hospitals and 3,152 Eligible Professionals have documented an ability to meet Stage 2 requirements using 2014 Edition Certified Electronic Health Record Technology.”
If HHS chooses not to meet these requirements, hospitals and Eligible Professionals could face the loss of incentive payments and even worse, significant penalties, disproportionately harming rural providers.
