This measure is an alternative measure in the Health Information Exchange Objective in the Promoting Interoperability category and is not a required measure. The alternate measures for this are:
The MIPS eligible clinician or group must attest that they engage in bi-directional exchange with an HIE to support transitions of care. The MIPS eligible clinician must attest YES to the following:
- I participate in an HIE in order to enable secure, bi-directional exchange to occur for every patient encounter, transition or referral, and record stored or maintained in the electronic health record (EHR) during the performance period in accordance with applicable law and policy.
- The HIE that I participate in is capable of exchanging information across a broad network of unaffiliated exchange partners including those using disparate EHRs, and does not engage in exclusionary behavior when determining exchange partners.
- I use the functions of certified electronic health record technology (CEHRT) to support bi-directional exchange with an HIE.
Using the bidirectional integration between Elation and Carequality will satisfy this measure. A bidirectional connection with a regional HIE will also satisfy this measure.
