MFU-stage-2 core measure #14

How would OEMR handle electronic exchange of data?
Are any module build in?
I am using MIRTH to connect with labs ‘HealthBridge’ HL7 feeding into OEMR.
I think many doctors will be excluded if less than 100 transitions of care are made were done in 90 days during testing period.
Any comments?

Thanks

No absolute number of patients is specified by the measure, only a percentage.

When OpenEMR has been fully certified, there should be no concern about fulfilling the technical requirements.

See attached .pdf.

It should be measure #15
YES for measure 14,
Sorry I should have said core #15 which deals with exchange of data with 3 measures
is OEMR able to handle this?.

Note that each of the Core & Menu Measures has a link to another .pdf that gives further clarification.

I had forgotten that both 14 & 15 are measures from MU1, therefore there should no questions about fulfilling technical requirements.

See screenshots.

“Sent Records?” box is in Patient Summary/Transactions tab/Add.

Once the boxes are checked, the numerators/denominators will show up in the AMC Report.

I am uncertain how the denominator is divided between the 2 measures. Ideally there should be 1 box for Transition In & another for Transition Out.

Regarding the mode of transfer, it appears that neither 14 nor 15 requires electronic transmission. See explanation links.

Regarding the third unspecified measure, there is no other requirement except for a patient portal.
