Completion Barometer

  • This barometer is tracking the progress of the 2015 ONC Ambulatory EHR Certification (ie. Stage 3 MU) project. See below Certification Criteria section for criteria titles and further details on progress tracking.
a1* a2* a5* a9* a12* a14* b1 b6 b10 c1 c2 c3 d1* d2* d3* d4* d5* d6* d7* d8* d9* d12* d13* g2 g3 g4 g5 g6 g7* g8 g9 g10 h1


Legend Description:
  • Not Yet Analyzed - Has not been analyzed yet.
  • Not Ready - Not ready for certification testing and waiting for somebody to work on this.
  • Not Ready (actively working on) - Not ready for certification testing, but are actively working on this.
  • Ready - Ready for certification testing.
  • Failed Test - Issues found during certification testing.
  • Certification Pass - Passed certification and in official codebase.
  • * - Self-declaratiion (this involves self-declaration rather than formal testing with the testing body).


Certification Criteria Reference and Tracking

  • Owner(s) - This is the "current" person/group(s) that are working on the criteria (or building block) and can be found in parenthesis next to the item.
  • Building Blocks:
  • CCDA (Jerry Padgett)
  • FHIR (Jerry Padgett) (Vishnu Yarmaneni)
  • API
  • FINALIZED means items is finalized (has been checked thoroughly and has an associated wiki page detailing why it is ready) and is ready to self-declare or test.

Notes

Below is how we derived the items to include in the main barometer:
  • Based on analysis incorporating finalized proposed changes and Cures: drop a6, a7, a8, a11, b4, b5; revise b1, b2, b3, b7, b8, b9, c3, d2, d3, d10, e1, f5, g6, g9; new b10, d12, d13, g10.(note goal is to only list the required items)
  • Note the following OR items: a2 or a3, g1 or g2, h1 or h2
  • EXTRAPOLATED EHR gap items are a1, a2 or a3. EHR non-gap items are a5, a9, a14, b1, b6, c1, g7, g8, g9, h1 or h2.
  • EXTRAPOLATED Bonus items need for MIPS are a12, e3, g1 or g2, c2, c3, (c4 is optional).
  • Above 2 lists distill to a1, a2 or a3, a5, a9, a12, a14, b1, b6, c1, c2, c3, e3, g1 or g2, g7, g8, g9, h1 or h2
  • Cures specific items are: a1, a2 or a3, a5, a9, a14, b1(standard or cures(cures is mandatory after 5/2/22)), c1, g7, g8 or g10(g10 is mandatory after 5/2/22), g9(standard or cures(cures is mandatory after 5/2/22)), h1 or h2
  • New distilled list including cures stuff that is mandatory after 5/22/22: a1, a2 or a3, a5, a9, a12, a14, b1(cures version), b6, c1, c2, c3, e3, g1 or g2, g7, g9(cures version), g10(cures), h1 or h2
  • Dependency items also needed are b10, d1-d9, d12, d13, g3-g6(g6 is considered completed when b1 and b6 is completed)
  • Final listing (above 2 lists combined): a1, a2 or a3(will do a2), a5, a9, a12, a14, b1(cures version), b6, b10, c1, c2, c3, d1-d9, d12, d13, e3, g1 or g2(will do g2), g3-g6(g6 is considered completed when b1 and b6 is completed), g7, g9(cures version), g10(cures), h1 or h2(will do h1)
  • Final adjustment after discussion with testing body: e3 not needed, g8 is needed, no more gap certification eligibility
  • The real Final listing (above 2 lists integrated): a1, a2 or a3(will do a2), a5, a9, a12, a14, b1(cures version), b6, b10, c1, c2, c3, d1-d9, d12, d13, g1 or g2(will do g2), g3-g6(g6 is considered completed when b1 and b6 is completed), g7, g8, g9(cures version), g10(cures), h1 or h2(will do h1)
