Description

To assess the readiness of EHR systems to support this new capability by constructing prototype eMeasure software, interfaced to at least one EHR system, that implements the chlamydia screening rate eMeasure based on HEDIS specifications for the numerator and denominator. Success in Plase I will support a Phase II activity to extend the prototype to additional EHR systems and additional existing and proposed future eMeasures and will serve as the basis for commercialization in the growing market for electronic healthcare quality metrics and tools to support Meaningful Use.
