Catching the white whale: finding salvation through meaningful use

The White Whale of Meaningful Use
It's no secret that achieving meaningful use, per government guidelines, can feel about as elusive as finding Moby Dick.  Wading through the pages of certification guidelines can seem like a never-ending battle, but it's not impossible.  You've got partners all along the way to assist you and Lexi-Comp is here to help.
 
With both the Drummond Group and CCHIT releasing their first groups of Stage One approvals this week, the certification race has officially begun.  And while getting certified may not be the hardest part of the development process, it's certainly one of the most important.  

Part of the certification requires that an EHR system include information on drug interactions, therapeutic dosages, drug nomenclature, pediatric dosing charts, pediatric dose calculations,  medication brand names, duplicate drug therapy and more.  Don't take a chance on the drug product information that's powering your system, ensure that you're using the most comprehensive and easily integrated data available:  Lexi-Data.

It has been a very interesting time for a number of EHR system vendors. As the first vendors have made their way through certification, the race has begun.
