4 PREFACE WELCOME TO MICROMD EMR From all of us here at Henry Schein Medical Systems, Inc., thank you for selecting MicroMD EMR, the definitive Electronic Medical Records (EMR) solution. This manual is a quick reference to all of the newest features of MicroMD EMR. This manual does not cover hardware setup, networking, or installation of the program. HOW THIS GUIDE IS ORGANIZED We have organized this guide according to the modules within MicroMD EMR. The discussion consists mainly of the new features within the modules. You can find in-depth information about the entire module in the MicroMD EMR User s Reference Manual located in the Help menu of MicroMD EMR. UNDERSTANDING TYPOGRAPHICAL CONVENTIONS Before using this manual, it is important to understand the typographical conventions used to identify and describe information. Cross-References Cross-references to chapters, sections, page numbers, headings, etc. are shown in an italic typeface. Text You Type Using the Keyboard Text that you type using the keyboard is shown in a Courier typeface. e.g., Type Anthony Smith in the Name field. Keys You Press and Buttons You Click Keys that you press on the keyboard and buttons/icons that you click with the mouse are shown in a bold sans-serif typeface. e.g., Press Enter. e.g., Click OK to continue.

5 Chapter 1. General Changes Understanding Typographical Conventions Dialog Box, Application Window Titles, and Field Names The titles of dialog boxes and application windows are shown in italics. Field names and selections made from dropdown menus, etc. are also shown in italics. e.g., The Print Preview dialog box appears. e.g., Select Commercial Insurance from the drop-down list. Notes, Warnings, and Tips Notes, tips and warnings are provided throughout the manual. These provide additional information that is important for you to know about the topic. NOTE A note is an important piece of information. STOP You should definitely read the information in a warning. It could help you prevent a disaster. TIP A tip table helps you with some interesting information about different ways to use the program. ii MicroMD EMR Update Guide Version 9.0

6 GENERAL CHANGES CHAPTER 1 SURESCRIPTS DIRECT SECURE MESSAGING Changes have been made to the Surescripts Direct Secure Messaging, including the importing of messages from other providers, using the fax inbox for incoming messages, enabled processing of CCD/CCR, and the ability to route message CDA from a patient through the portal to the direct network provider. Surescripts CIN is a network that allows for the creation of direct secure addresses for providers participating in MU and the transmission of secure s. This tool is integrated with MicroMD EMR and the Patient Portal to allow providers to meet Core MU Measures for: Core 7: Allow patients the ability to View, Download and Transmit their electronic medical records Through the Patient Portal providers can post patient electronic medical records (CDA documents) for patient Viewing, Download and Transmission. Patients also have the ability to Transmit as part of this requirement by securely sending their electronic medical records through the patient portal to a provider that has a direct secure address set up through one of the Surescripts Clinical Network Partners listed to the right. Direct secure addresses set up through non-surescripts partner sources currently will not transmit through the Surescripts CIN. Core 15: Securely send other providers a Summary of Care Record for transitions of care Locate providers direct secure addresses on the MicroMD EMR Surescripts CIN directory (or add a new provider s direct secure address) and send secure Summary of Care Records securely and electronically for transitions of care. Providers can securely Summary of Care records through MicroMD EMR to providers with a direct secure address set up through one of the Surescripts Clinical Network Partners listed to the right. Direct secure addresses set up through non-surescripts partner sources currently will not transmit through the Surescripts CIN. Core 17: Use Secure Electronic Messaging to communicate with patients on relevant health information Also accomplished through the provider s direct secure address Practices with EPs participating in MU will need the following direct secure addresses: 1 direct secure address for the practice: Required for secure messaging patients through the patient portal and ability for patients to send a Summary of Care records to their referring provider if they have been given that providers direct secure address (Core 7 and 17) 1 direct secure address for each provider doing MU: Securely send Summary of Care documents to other referring providers on the Surescripts network and communicate relevant healthcare info securely with patients (Core 15 and 17) 1 direct secure address for each additional location that will need its own secure direct address: If a location needs to manage their direct secure s separately from another practice, they will need an additional direct secure address for each location for secure messaging patients through the patient portal and ability for patients to send a Summary of Care records to their referring provider if they have been given that providers direct secure address (Core 7 and 17) Surescripts Clinical Network (CIN) Partners Providers with direct secure addresses through these EMR vendors and organizations can be securely ed from MicroMD EMR through the Surescripts Clinical Network.
