Reference Grids Available to Lay Out Meaningful Use Criteria

The Office of the National Coordinator for HIT has released new meaningful use quick reference grid layouts to ease the understanding of how Stage 1 and Stage 2 meaningful use objectives and measures correlate with the 2014 Edition electronic health records certification criteria.

The grids list core and menu set objectives and measures, indicate which type of providers are applicable for each objective, reference the certification criteria (Federal Register citation) that correlate with each objective and measure, and give applicable national standards to be used.

More information and links to the grids are available here on ONC’s blog site. The blog starts with a reference to grids released two years ago--don’t click on that link, but on the 2014 grid links below it.
