Here are two of the EHR related articles I came across this week.
10 Questions to make sure to ask an EHR vendor
5 decisions that will determine the fate of e-health records
Advisory committee recommends changes to certification process that would expand it beyond CCHIT
Vendors can apply for modular EHR certification on October 7
The article that is the most interesting is the expansion of certification process to beyond CCHIT. One of my main complain regarding CCHIT is that it does not consider SAAS based EHR system and open source CCHIT. This will truly be good news for the proliferation and adoption of EHR systems.
