4 Introduction and Opening Remarks William O'Byrne, Executive Director, NJ-HITEC
5 Meaningful Use for Health Systems Benefits, Opportunities and Challenges Linda Reed RN, MBA VP/CIO Atlantic Health System
6 Driving for Adoption and Clinical Outcomes + Technology (data, interoperability) + Quality (reporting& outcomes) + Adoption + Security and Privacy + Certification (provider and vendor) = Meaningful Use
7 Benefits of Meaningful Use Improving patient care and clinical outcomes Potential incentive payments Getting your HIT up to date Getting HIT vendors to finally do something about product gaps Getting more attention from senior leadership/board Getting others in your organization to participate in HIT Increased HIT spending
8 Challenges of Meaningful Use Staying informed of and ahead of the definitions and dates Preconceived expectations about the incentive payments Impact of MU on your HIT strategy Impact of MU on your current portfolio Impact on your existing resources Your ability to catch up and cost to do so Getting more attention from senior leadership/board Balancing health information access against ARRA & HIPAA Security and Privacy Regulations
9 Considerations and Opportunities Implementing and adopting core clinical systems, e.g. medication reconciliation, critical care automation, physician notes do we mandate CPOE adoption can you mandate Joining an health information exchange Ability to measure and report quality measures Balancing health information access against ARRA & HIPAA Security and Privacy Regulations What if vendors do not achieve certification
10 Recommendations Develop an Organization Wide strategy to address MU Proactively assess impact of ARRA on organizational priorities Understand what can be gained Review the impact of meaningful use What is it? What does it mean? What will it cost? Reinforce that meeting meaningful use is a multi departmental project and expectation
11 Remember to Assess the gap between your current state and MU Understand scope and value of meaningful use for your organization Understand the required changes to the IT Strategy and Project Portfolio Manage organizational expectations Monitor your vendor s certification process Continue to monitor meaningful use criteria
12 Meaningful Use for Physicians Benefits, Opportunities and Challenges Kevin Lanphear, DO, Newburyport Family Practice, Newburyport, MA, President, Whittier Independent Physicians Association
13 Opportunities for Physicians in Demonstrating Meaningful Use The Federal government is offering substantial financial incentives for demonstrating meaningful use compliance EMRs have matured, and vendors are providing a CCHIT certified product with the capability for physicians to demonstrate meaningful use Now is the time to implement: the Federal government, healthcare providers, and EMR vendors are all focused on adopting EMRs and demonstrating meaningful use EMR adoption leads to better practices at the point of care
14 Challenges Physicians Face in Demonstrating Meaningful Use Understanding meaningful use in terms of: The criteria Methods of reporting to CMS The timelines for reporting Allocating the time required for EMR installation, practice workflow redesign and learning to use the system An initial dip in productivity upon implementation of an EMR Maintaining the motivation and patience of providers during the implementation process
15 Meaningful Use Has Become Easier to Accomplish for Physicians Reduction in the number of the core set of criteria that physicians have to meet from 25 to 15 Physicians can choose to demonstrate compliance with any 5 of 10 menu set objectives Significant reductions in thresholds of measures for meaningful use compliance objectives (both core and menu set)
16 Meaningful Use and the New Jersey Regional Extension Center Tom Gregorio, SVP Administration and CIO, Meadowlands Hospital and Medical Center, and Executive Director of Health-e-cITi-NJ
