ONC Interim Rule or Standards, Implementation Specifications, and Certification Criteria for Electronic Health Record Technology, 2014 Edition
ONC Proposed Rule - Highlights • Referred to as 2014 edition Standards & Certification Rule • Public comment template on HealthIT.gov website • The proposed rule identifies certain “unchanged” 2014 Edition EHR certification criteria that would permit the developer to claim just a gap certification

ONC Proposed Rule - Highlights • Comments Sought on • Data Portability - whether ONC should adopt a certification criterion that focuses on the portability of data stored within CEHRT • Price Transparency - this provision would require EHR technology developers to disclose only the full cost of a certified Complete EHR or certified EHR Module – Public information • User- Centric Design – IOM - “HHS should specify the quality and risk management process requirements that health IT vendors must adopt, with a particular focus on human factors, safety culture, and usability” – 8 selected measures • Quality – IOM – “Establish quality management principles and processes in health IT” – Publicly available
