Overview • Test Scenario Development • 2014 Test Methods Timeline • 2014 Test Methods: Public Review and Comment • IWG Next Steps
Development Methodology:Unit Based Testing Unit Based Test Procedures • Current Test Procedures employ a unit based testing module where each criteria is tested individually. • Testing data nor results are forwarded onto any other tests for that product
Development Methodology:Scenario Based Testing Development Methodology Scenario Based Test Procedures • Proposed Test Procedures will employ scenario based testing where results and data is forwarded onto test for that product
Development Methodology:ScenarioBased Testing Development Methodology Scenario Based Test Procedures • Scenario Based Test Procedures will be modularly developed so that individual tests can be skipped for products which do not have that capability
Test Scenario Development • Development Approach • Reflects a typical clinical workflow in multiple care settings • Allows persistence of data elements • Provides a model for data threading between different certification criterion and various destinations within an EHR • Maintains testing flexibility (e.g. add/remove “unit test”) • Types • Medication Management – Outpatient • Emergency Department – Inpatient
Test Scenario Development • Process • Develop clinically plausible workflow • Current Testing Scenarios based on 2011 Edition Certification Criteria • Reevaluate against 2014 Edition Certification Criteria
Test Scenario Example • PDF of Medication Management Test Scenario Review
Findings • Scenario-based testing can be used to test EHRs • Complexities in specific individual tests and testing data will yield difficulty in scenario testing • Complexity, and cost-benefit will be evaluated further to determine next steps
