More EHRs Get Certified


May 6, 2008

The Certification Commission for Healthcare Information Technology in recent weeks has certified several ambulatory electronic health records software products under its 2007 criteria.

Certification of a vendor’s product does not mean all EHRs from that vendor meet CCHIT criteria. The commission certifies specific versions of specific products. The most recent certifications are:

* TouchWorks V11.1 from Allscripts LLC;

* Millennium PowerChart/PowerWorks EMR, Version 2007, from Cerner Corp.;

* HealthPort EMR V9.0 from HealthPort;

* ChartMaker Version 3.0.5 from STI Computer Services; and

* Wellogic Consult Version 3.10 Release 10 from Wellogic Inc., integrated with the MEDfx Version 2.8 practice management software of GBA Health Network Systems.

CCHIT also awarded pre-market conditional certification to the Sunrise Ambulatory, Version 4.5C, SP5 application from Eclipsys Corp. It will be fully certified once its use at a physician office has been verified.

Twenty-nine ambulatory EHRs have now been certified under 2007 criteria. The full list is available at cchit.org.
