Quality management system (§ 170.315(g)(4)) and accessibility-centered design (§ 170.315(g)(5)) must be certified as part of the overall scope of the certificate issued to the product.
- When a single quality management system (QMS) is used, the QMS only needs to be identified once. Otherwise, the QMS’ need to be identified for every capability to which it was applied.
- When a single accessibility-centered design standard is used, the standard only needs to be identified once. Otherwise, the accessibility-centered design standards need to be identified for every capability to which they were applied; or, alternatively, the developer must state that no accessibility-centered design was used.

Applies to entire criterion
Technical outcome – The health IT records disclosures that are made for treatment, payment, and health care operations as these terms are defined at 45 CFR 164.501.
Clarifications:
- We expect that the date, time, patient identification, user identification, and the description of each disclosure would be automatically recorded by the health IT. [see also 77 FR 54252]
- A “description of the disclosure” could be a free text field that includes any information that could be readily and electronically associated with the disclosure. For example, some descriptive information could be included (e.g., the words “treatment,” “payment,” or “healthcare operations”) separately or together as a general category. [see also 75 FR 44623 and 77 FR 54252]
