Participants should enjoy a 2 day conference with many representatives from State-wide HIE's, CMIO's from many the Mid-Altantic healthcare organizations. <br /><br />We are nearly sold out and registrations will not be accepted at the door.<br /><br />A Must Attend !Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-733074358901582680.post-89477556819652032302010-10-25T10:58:53.562-04:002010-10-25T10:58:53.562-04:00An observation: Much of the trouble with specific ...An observation: Much of the trouble with specific criteria in the MU certification are due to the level of those requirements. Most of the MU criteria are User Level requirements. These are requirements that the user 'feels' or would 'ask for'. These are requirements that drive the system to some functionality or outcome. These are not criteria that define a specific architecture or specific design. Yes they have some low level detail regarding interoperability (format, vocabulary, etc). But Interoperability also doesn't define an architecture or specific design.<br /><br />Where as the security criteria are at the System Level. These criteria are not linked to a User Level requirement (need or desire). It is this lack of linkage that gets people frustrated at trying to figure out what is really needed. The result is that the EHR vendors will design to these System Level requirements. They will pass the test, but provide no linkage to a user need and thus produce useless functionality.John Moehrkehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04526719420117446030noreply@blogger.com
