eMeasures continue to clarify Meaningful Use

On February 15, at the request of the Department of Health and Human Services, the National Quality Forum (NQF) has announced the conversion of 113 NQF-endorsed measures from a paper-based format to an electronic "eMeasure" format.

These converted measures, designed to provide greater standardization and consistency when comparing performance results, will be available for public comment through April 1. These are the final measures, supplementing the original 44 released in July 2010 in the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services' Electronic Health Record Incentive Program Final Rule.

With the release of these measures, Meaningful Use guidelines continue to be refined - are your customers ready?

As a vendor, having a fully-integrated, fully-supported, easy-to-use drug information provider is akin to having an insurance policy. If your current DI provider isn't providing you all that you need or if you're still looking for the most reputable drug information company in the industry, you owe it to yourself and your customers (both current and potential) to give Lexicomp a try.
