3 Background ONC proposed a Voluntary Proposed Edition of certification criteria on February 26, 2014. Our goals with the Voluntary Proposed Edition were to provide regulatory flexibilities, clarify our policy, improve interoperability, and make administrative changes to the ONC HIT Certification Program. Stakeholders stated that the full set of proposals in the Voluntary Proposed Edition was too expansive. Support for incremental rule making was mixed. 2
4 Edition Naming Approach Our previous editions of EHR certification criteria were named for the first year when we would expect compliance to support the EHR Incentive Programs. – e.g., 2011 and 2014 Editions. Stakeholder feedback on our most recent February NPRM stated that this naming approach creates unrealistic expectations that certified products will be available by the edition year. We determined that Editions should not have any additional implied meaning and will therefore name editions of certification criteria by the year in which the final rule is released. Other rulemakings like the 2014 Edition Release 2 final rule would be added to the most current edition of certification criteria (e.g., 201X Edition Release 2). 3

6 2014 Edition Release 2 Overview In consideration of stakeholder feedback, we adopt a small subset of the proposals as optional and revised 2014 Edition Release 2 certification criteria and make only a few changes to the ONC Health IT Certification Program that make our program more effective and less burdensome. The 2014 Edition Release 2 includes: – 10 optional and 2 revised certification criteria – A small number of changes to the ONC Health IT Certification Program – Administrative updates 5

8 Adopted Optional and Revised Certification Criteria in 2014 Edition Release 2 7
9 Computerized Provider Order Entry We split the 2014 Edition “computerized provider order entry” criterion into three optional certification criteria based on capabilities (medications, laboratory, and diagnostic imaging). These three option criteria would allow an EHR to provide adaptations, such as mobile apps, for a specific capability (e.g., medications) and not have to be certified to the other two capabilities. Reason for Release 2 policy change: added flexibility 8
10 Transitions of Care View, Download, and Transmit to 3 rd Party We decouple the “content” portion of the 2014 Edition “transitions of care” (ToC) criterion from the “transport” capabilities, and adopted a new set of optional transport criteria (discussed on the next slide). This decoupling would allow health information service providers (HISPs) and other health IT developers to provide either content or transport capabilities without having to be certified to both. We also adopt the Edge Protocols Implementation Guide (IG) v1.1 for the optional ToC criterion to promote an EHR’s ability to reliably connect to a HISP. We adopt a revised “view, download, and transmit to 3 rd party” (VDT) criterion that offers the same revisions made to the optional ToC criterion as optional for testing and certification (e.g., Edge Protocols IG v1.1) Reasons for Release 2 policy changes: added flexibility and improved interoperability 9
11 Transmission Method Certification Criteria As part of decoupling “content” and “transport” for ToC and VDT, we adopt three optional certification criteria for transmission methods: 1.Direct 2.Direct and XDR/XDM for Direct Messaging 3.SOAP RTM and XDR/XDM for Direct Messaging Reason for Release 2 policy change: added flexibility 10
12 Clinical Information Reconciliation and Incorporation We adopt an optional “clinical information reconciliation and incorporation certification” (CIRI) certification criterion that moves “incorporation” from the ToC certification criterion. Commenters stated that this was a better fit for the capabilities and more appropriate for clinical workflow. Reason for Release 2 policy change: added regulatory clarity 11
13 Syndromic Surveillance Note: this policy change affects only non-urgent care ambulatory settings. We adopt an optional certification criterion that permits any electronic method of creating syndromic surveillance information for exchange in non-urgent care ambulatory settings. In the 2014 Edition criterion, we only permitted the use of the HL7 2.5.1 standard. At the time, we expected the industry to develop an HL7 2.5.1 IG for ambulatory (and non-urgent care) syndromic surveillance. The industry has not developed an HL7 2.5.1 IG. We are aware of providers that are sending syndromic surveillance data to public health using alternate standards (such as CDA and QRDA III), but also without developed, consensus IGs for syndromic surveillance. To promote providers’ ability to achieve the MU syndromic surveillance objective for Stage 2, we are permitting EHR technology to certify to this optional criterion that allows any electronic method of transmission. Reason for Release 2 policy change: added flexibility 12
14 Utilization Certification Criteria Safety-enhanced design (SED): We revise the SED criterion to include the optional three CPOE criteria and optional CIRI criterion. – Reason for Release 2 policy change: added regulatory clarity Automated numerator calculation: We change this criterion to designate it as “optional” for the purposes of excluding it from the 2014 Edition Complete EHR definition. – Reason for Release 2 policy change: added regulatory clarity 13
15 Gap Certification Eligibility Our gap certification policy allows the use of test results from a previous certification for certification to functionalities that have not changed, subject to the ONC-Accredited Certification Body’s (ONC-ACB) discretion. Seven Release 2 criteria are eligible for gap certification if EHRs were certified to the 2014 Edition versions of these functionalities: – Three optional CPOE criteria – Optional syndromic surveillance criterion – Three optional transmission criteria 14
16 Certification Program Changes We finalize our proposal to discontinue the “Complete EHR” definition and Complete EHR certification beginning with the next adopted edition of certification criteria. This does not affect prior or future 2014 Edition certification. – Reason for Release 2 policy change: added regulatory clarity and flexibility We adopt the “ONC Certified HIT” certification and design mark for required use by ONC-ACBs. – Reason for Release 2 policy change: provide clarity for the market as it relates to health IT certified under the program We adopt an updated standard (ISO/IEC 17065) for the accreditation of ONC-ACBs. – Reason for Release 2 policy change: maintains alignment with industry practices 15
17 Other Administrative Changes We finalize a proposal to remove 2011 Edition-specific EHR certification criteria and related standards, terms, and requirements from the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) effective March 1, 2015. – Reason for Release 2 policy change: EHR technology certified to 2011 Edition will no longer meet the Certified EHR Technology definition starting in 2015 – Keeping criteria editions current for the purposes of Stark/Anti- Kickback EHR donation rules We finalize a proposal to remove the temporary certification program regulations from the CFR on the effective date of this final rule. – Reason for Release 2 policy change: The temporary certification program sunset on October 4, 2012, and is no longer in existence 16
18 What’s Next? ONC will be publishing a proposed rule for the next edition of EHR certification criteria jointly with the next CMS EHR Incentive Programs proposed rule. We expect these rules to be published by the end of 2014. We anticipate that the next edition of EHR certification criteria will contain functionalities that will be required for the next stage of the EHR Incentive Programs. The public comment we received on the Proposed Voluntary Edition will help inform our proposals for the next certification edition. 17
