“Health Care DataWorks is proud to be one of the first EDW providers to earn Stage 1 certification to calculate and submit clinical quality measures,” said Herb Smaltz, CEO. “This certification means healthcare organizations can now leverage our solution to help them achieve meaningful use and qualify for vital incentive dollars. Working with HCD can be especially beneficial for organizations that have multiple EHRs and whose constellation of EHR modules do not currently meet MU certification or for organizations that are unable for various reasons to upgrade to the latest MU certified EHR modules. Working with HCD simplifies the reporting process for such organizations. In addition, these hospitals could use the EDW Appliance to calculate and submit clinical quality measures on their behalf which gets them a long way toward total compliance.”

The EDW Appliance was certified by Drummond Group’s ONC-ATCB 2011/2012 certification program. As one of the organizations designated by the Office of the National Coordinator Authorized Testing and Certification Body (ONC-ATCB), Drummond Group works closely with healthcare software vendors and hospitals to certify EHRs and modules of EHRs. In turn, healthcare providers using the EHR systems of certified vendors are qualified to receive federal stimulus monies upon demonstrating meaningful use of the technology — a key component of the federal government’s push to improve clinical care delivery through the adoption and effective use of EHRs by U.S. healthcare providers.

[…] was really intrigued by the recent news about Health Care DataWorks receiving Modular EHR Certification. Of course, having a new company achieve a modular EHR certification isn’t that big of news. […]
