Patients Before Paperwork Update:
- On August 3, 2020 the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) issued its . A number of the proposals are aimed at reducing administrative burden, especially in the telehealth services space. CMS expressed that future changes will support a variety of HHS goals, including reducing administrative burden. The Regulatory Affairs team at 바카라 사리트 has been working hard to advocate for many of the proposals and will continue to work with CMS to reduce administrative burden and clinical documentation burden.
- 바카라 사리트 recently responded to the Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ONC) and the Urban Institute's Request for Public Feedback on the Draft Voluntary User-Reported Criteria for the Electronic Health Record (EHR) Reporting Program. 바카라 사리트 encouraged ONC and the Urban Institute to focus revisions to the criteria on collecting information through a process that is not too time-consuming and burdensome to clinical end users. Likewise, we recommended that the criteria should gather specific information that is targeted at and useful to clinical end users.
