AGENDA

• Welcomeo Review of agenda and goals for the session

• History of Meaningful Use• Define Meaningful Use• Demo Epic Workflow MU Allergy objective• Demo Epic Workflow MU Smoking objective • Review Key Points• Answer questions• Next Steps

o Review homework

DISCLAIMER

• All characters, data, examples that appearing in this work are fictitious. Any resemblance to real

persons, living or dead, is purely coincidental.

Page 4: Meaningful use for NYU using Epic

SITUATION: POOR ADOPTION OF H.I.T.

• US lags behind other in industry sectors and developed countries.

Page 5: Meaningful use for NYU using Epic

BACKGROUND: REASONS

Cost Software Quality and

Usability Standards

Page 6: Meaningful use for NYU using Epic

ASSESSMENT: POOR H.I.T.:

• Medical Errors

• Increased healthcare cost

• Decreased quality of care

• Increase paperwork

Page 7: Meaningful use for NYU using Epic

• Increase the adoption of the Electronic Medical Record (EMR)

• Advance Health Information Technology(HIT)

Page 8: Meaningful use for NYU using Epic

SOLUTION: HITECH ACT• Signed into Law Feb 17,2009 by

President Obama with a Goal by 2015 to:

o reduce the -cost of care

o Improve patient-health centered care

o Enhance patient safety

o Improve population care

Page 9: Meaningful use for NYU using Epic

WHAT IS MEANINGFUL

USE?• Meaningful Use (MU) =

Objective measures that hospital report as a result of HITECH act.

Page 10: Meaningful use for NYU using Epic

MEANINGFUL USE - REPORT

CARDHospital Reports on 21 Different

Objectives

Page 11: Meaningful use for NYU using Epic

EXAMPLE FINAL HOSPITAL REPORT

Page 12: Meaningful use for NYU using Epic

STILL AWAKE?

Page 13: Meaningful use for NYU using Epic

MEANINGFUL USE: THE RELIGION

• GIGO• Adoption of

technology• “Information

wants to be free”

Page 14: Meaningful use for NYU using Epic

WHY CHANGE?

• Voluntary program and you attest to being a MU.

• I don’t need an EHR to be a good clinician?

• Where do I find time to learn a new system?

• How do I find time to see patients and enter my own data?

• It will slow me down?

• It so uncaring and not patient friendly.

• I like paper records!

Page 15: Meaningful use for NYU using Epic

INCENTIVE: IMPROVE PATIENT CARE

o MU supports evidence based objectives to improve patient outcome.

o MU supports patient-centric care that engages patients and families

o MU helps reduce health disparities and improve Population and Public Health

o MU improves care coordination

o DSS supports safe patient care

Page 16: Meaningful use for NYU using Epic

INCENTIVE: REVENUE

• $31 Billion Dollars available for meaningful users of electronic health systems.

• Hospital can receive substantial income for “meaningful use”

Page 17: Meaningful use for NYU using Epic

INCENTIVE: NON USE PENALTY

• Penalties start in 2015

Page 18: Meaningful use for NYU using Epic

NEXT UP: EXAMPLES

• Any Questions before we move to examples?

Page 19: Meaningful use for NYU using Epic

21 COMPONENTS OF “MEANINGFUL USE”

• 1. Interoperability objectives

• 2. Objectives that measure clinical use of EHR

Page 20: Meaningful use for NYU using Epic

MU OBJECTIVES: MEASURE

INTEROPERABILITY

• Report hospital quality measures to CMS (Stoke, ED throughput)

• Exchange clinical information with other institutions

• Submit electronic data to immunization registries

Page 21: Meaningful use for NYU using Epic

MU OBJECTIVES: MEASURE CLINICAL

USE OF EHR• Computerized Practitioner Order Entry

(CPOE)

• Record demographics

• Maintain active medication list

• Maintain active problem list

• *Maintain active Allergy list

• *Record smoking status for patients 13 years or older

• Medication Reconciliation

Every Patient Encounter

Page 22: Meaningful use for NYU using Epic

MU RULE: ALLERGY LIST

• Objective :Maintain active medication allergy list.

• Measure : More than 80 percent of all unique patients admitted to the eligible hospital’s have at least one entry (or an indication that the patient has no known medication allergies) recorded as structured data.

Evidence: Adverse drug events in hospitalized patients. Excess length of stay, extra costs, and attributable mortality. JAMA. 1997 Jan 22-29;277(4):301-6.

Page 23: Meaningful use for NYU using Epic

WORKFLOW TO MEET MU OR ITEM

-Patient admitted using Admission Navigator in Epic.-During your admission suggested workflow you will come to the allergies section.

Page 24: Meaningful use for NYU using Epic

WORKFLOW TO MEET MU OR ITEM

-If patient leaves the hospital with no data in the No known allergies measure Fails.

-Select No known allergies check box-Select Mark as Reviewed.

Page 25: Meaningful use for NYU using Epic

RECORD ALLERGY OBJECTIVE

Page 26: Meaningful use for NYU using Epic

EXAMPLE FINAL HOSPITAL REPORT

Allergy Objective (80%):

Out of 1287 patients seen:92% (passed)

8% (failed)

Page 27: Meaningful use for NYU using Epic

MU RULE: SMOKING STATUS

• Objective :Record smoking status for patients 13 years old or older.

• Measure : More than 50 percent of all unique patients 13 years old or older or admitted to the eligible hospital’s inpatient or emergency department have smoking status recorded as structured data.

Evidence: Smoking cessation counseling should be provided. Smokers are 2 to 3 times more likely to get pneumonia than nonsmokers and are at risk of more severe disease Cleve Clin J Med. 2005 Oct;72(10):916-20.

Page 28: Meaningful use for NYU using Epic

WORKFLOW TO MEET MU OR ITEM

-Select Tobacco use status of patient.

-If patient leaves the hospital Never Assessed measure Fails. All other sections give credit. Including Unknown If Ever Smoked.

Page 29: Meaningful use for NYU using Epic

RECORD SMOKING OBJECTIVE

Page 30: Meaningful use for NYU using Epic

END OF YEAR RESULTS FOR SMOKING

OBJECTIVE

Record Smoking

-End of the reporting period-For the entire Hospital-Inpatient and ER admissions

Page 31: Meaningful use for NYU using Epic

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Key: Start with education of users on correct workflow – Minimize Work Around

• Key: Real Time Documentation - Minimize Batch Documentation & Mark as reviewed

• Key: Utilize reports / Best Practice Advisories – Reports and Advisories are your friend.
