Our EMR Selector collaborator HIMSS has also is providing a series of MU webinars. See the HIMSS website for details.

The Meaningful Use (MU) regulations have been published and are available at the GPO website. Final MU specifications were issued July 13, 2010 and are being processed by MSP to update the preliminary criteria already on the EHR Selector. This should be completed by the end of August or early September. These final criteria are in some ways more realistic than the interim criteria, some of which proved onerous to some stakeholders. Also helpful is the FAQs for the ARRA legislation. They can be found at: HHS Recovery Act discussion forum

You might also check our EMR Talk Discussion Forum topics for additional comments from MSP EHR Selector™ subscribers. Check the Foley & Lardner Website or other law firms listed in our Resources Section for additional legal explanations.
