EHR Reporting Program Task Force 2021

Vision:

To address information gaps in the health IT marketplace among all stakeholders, including ONC, and provide insights on how certified health IT is being used.

Overarching Charge:

Make recommendations to prioritize and improve the draft set of developer-reported, interoperability-focused measures for the ONC EHR Reporting Program.

Specific Charge:

Review the draft developer-reported measures and supporting materials developed by the Urban Institute, under contract with ONC, and provide recommendations to prioritize the measures and suggest ways to improve the draft measures.

  • Consider background research, reports, and other sources as relevant to inform analysis of draft measures.
  • Consider both established and emerging measurement practices and capabilities, as well as technical, legal, and policy requirements.
  • Consider the use, technical feasibility, and potential policy impacts of the draft measures.
  • Prioritize the draft measures to elevate those with the most potential for addressing gaps and providing insights in the certified health IT marketplace.
  • Consider ways to avoid placing undue disadvantage on small and startup health IT developers in reporting measures.
  • Develop recommendations to inform revisions to improve an initial set of developer-reported, interoperability-focused measures.
  • Suggest additional measures and measure categories to prioritize for subsequent iterations of the developer-reported measures.
  • Approve recommendations for submission to the National Coordinator by September 9, 2021.
