What is the correct procedure when performing the following tasks. Currently the AMC report yields only zeros. a. Providing an electronic copy of a patient’s medical record. currently I am using the offsite patient portal? b. Use certified EHR technology to identify patient-specific education resources and provide those resources to the patient if appropriate. ( AMC:170.302(m) ).  I have used the Patient Education tab numerous times and checked the Patient Education check-box  within an encounter. Reporting figures are still zeros. ---

I think the only thing required to get patients included in the denominator is generally an encounter within the report dates. What are you setting for Begin Date, End Date, and Provider? The Patient Education check-box should increment your numerator for the patient-specific resources, however the problem is that you are not getting counted in the denominator for some reason, so need to troubleshoot that issue (see above). Also, for a detailed account of how to use the AMC mechanisms in OpenEMR check out the end of this page: [http://open-emr.org/wiki/index.php/CDR\_User\_Manual](http://open-emr.org/wiki/index.php/CDR_User_Manual) Providing the electronic copy can be done (note you need to use mechanism above to record it was done) utilizing the CCR reports in PAtient Summary-\>Reports-\>Continuity of Care Record (CCR) (to see this feature, ensure the following Adminstration-\>Globals-\>Features-\>Activate CCR/CCD Reporting is checked) -brady > **[OpenEMR](https://www.open-emr.org/)** > > The world's leading open-source electronic medical record and practice management software. ---

The CDR Manual and the new demo was a great help. There is definitely a problem with the patient education tracking. The demo version stopped counting after the first encounter (however all entries were recorded in the database). My openemr (v4.1) does not record any patient-education entries (Again, the entries are in the database). Nii. ---

See page 6, 2nd row of table on this page: [http://healthcare.nist.gov/docs/170.302.n\_AutomateMeasureCalc\_v1.1.pdf](http://healthcare.nist.gov/docs/170.302.n_AutomateMeasureCalc_v1.1.pdf) So, the denominator is people (not encounters). To get a better idea of this rule, here are the vital class files for it: [http://github.com/openemr/openemr/blob/master/library/classes/rulesets/Amc/reports/AMC\_302m.php](http://github.com/openemr/openemr/blob/master/library/classes/rulesets/Amc/reports/AMC_302m.php) [http://github.com/openemr/openemr/blob/master/library/classes/rulesets/Amc/reports/AMC\_302m/Denominator.php](http://github.com/openemr/openemr/blob/master/library/classes/rulesets/Amc/reports/AMC_302m/Denominator.php) [http://github.com/openemr/openemr/blob/master/library/classes/rulesets/Amc/reports/AMC\_302m/Numerator.php](http://github.com/openemr/openemr/blob/master/library/classes/rulesets/Amc/reports/AMC_302m/Numerator.php) What are you setting for Begin Date, End Date, and Provider in the report? -brady > **[OpenEMR](https://www.open-emr.org/)** > > The world's leading open-source electronic medical record and practice management software. ---

The report counts the all the denominators, it’s the numerator that remains zero no matter what. I made sure that patients were in a subset that required “intervention” (i.e. Smokers, Obese, etc).
