Making Clinical Decision Support Valuable

Demonstrating Meaningful Use Can Be Rewarding

Monday, May 24, 2010 by Bonnie Briggs


Meaningful use is a criteria set defining the software capabilities necessary to be implemented in the clinical work flow by electronic medical record users.  Meaningful use must be demonstrated by the end user of an EMR application to meet these specific requirements in order to receive reimbursements from Medicare and Medicaid that the government has identified.  There has been approximately 17 billion dollars set aside for this in the American Recovery and Reimbursement Act specific to the use of EMRs.

Lexi-Data, when integrated into an EMR, will provide the end user the data necessary  to demonstrate meaningful use through clinical decision support (CDS).  This data supports allergy checking, interaction checking, and dose range checking.  Localization functionality within this database can help make the clinical decision support more meaningful to users and create a more rewarding experience of delivering care.
