Avatar Meaningful Use Kick Off Guide Meaningful Use Overview What is Meaningful Use The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA Legislation) authorizes the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) to provide reimbursement incentives for eligible professionals who are successful in becoming “meaningful users” of certified EHR technology. These incentives were created to encourage adoption of EHRs to achieve specified improvements in care delivery and promote advancement in health care processes and outcomes. Simply put, "meaningful use" means providers need to show they're using certified EHR technology in ways that can be measured significantly in quality and in quantity. In addition to the monetary incentives, the adoption of EHRs can improve quality of care, advance patient safety, increase customer satisfaction and enhance office efficiency. Facilities and practices using a certified EHR may also experience increased profitability through reduced costs and increased revenue. While the incentives offer a positive push toward EHR use, do keep in mind that an eligible provider isn’t meaningfully using a certified EHR by 2015, penalties will be assessed via Medicare payment reductions. For more details on Meaningful Use, refer to the CMS website at: http://www.cms.gov/EHRIncentivePrograms/. How do I Meet Meaningful Use Requirements? To qualify for incentive payments, meaningful use requirements must be met in the following ways: Medicare EHR Incentive Program—Eligible professionals must successfully demonstrate meaningful use of certified electronic health record technology every year they participate in the program. Medicaid EHR Incentive Program—Eligible professionals may qualify for incentive payments if they adopt, implement, upgrade or demonstrate meaningful use in their first year of participation. They must successfully demonstrate meaningful use for subsequent participation years. Adopted: Acquired and installed certified EHR technology. (For example, can show evidence of purchase.) Implemented: Began using certified EHR technology. (For example, provide staff training or data entry of patient demographic information into EHR.) Upgraded: Expanded existing technology to meet certification requirements. (For example, upgrade to certified EHR technology or add new functionality to meet the definition of certified EHR technology.) NOTE: An Agency that only provides inpatient services won’t qualify for Meaningful Use. An Inpatient service is defined as one that is billed using a Place of Service Code of 21 or 23.

Avatar Meaningful Use Kick Off Guide What are the requirements for Stage 1 of Meaningful Use (2011 and 2012)? Meaningful use includes both a core set and a menu set of objectives that are specific to eligible professionals. An eligible provider must have legal access to a certified EHR or a combination of EHRs that cover 100% of the Stage 1 Meaningful Use requirements, including all of the Menu set. While an eligible provider can defer “using” five menu criteria they cannot defer “possessing” the software to meet those five criteria. For eligible professionals, there are a total of 25 meaningful use objectives. To qualify for an incentive payment, 20 of these 25 objectives must be met. There are 15 required core objectives. The remaining 5 objectives may be chosen from the list of 10 menu set objectives. Beginning in 2013 these objectives become core. Core Set for Eligible Professionals: 1.

Avatar Meaningful Use Kick Off Guide Implementation Models Implementation Models The products you’ll use for meaningful use will vary based on your implementation, particularly around medication management and orders. Typically, an outpatient (ambulatory) facility will use OrderConnect to manage medications and orders; an inpatient (hospital) will use Avatar Order Entry plus OrderConnect (for E-prescribing). There are three different implementation approaches related to lab results: 1. Avatar with OrderConnect 2. Avatar with Order Entry 3. Avatar with OrderConnect for outpatient and Order Entry for inpatient Page 10 of 35 Copyright © 1997-2012 Netsmart New York Inc. All rights reserved.

If you are using Avatar Order Entry to enter your Medication Orders then the Allergies must be recorded within Avatar CWS in the Allergies and Hypersensitivities Form. If you are using OrderConnect to enter your Medications, then all Allergies should be entered into OrderConnect. Order Entry Information Netsmart’s Avatar Order Entry facilitates the entry of all types of orders relating to client care in an Inpatient setting. The order types such as Dietary, Lab, Restraint, Therapy, Pharmacy, etc. can be filed electronically to expedite completion. Electronic filing of these orders provides uncomplicated subsequent accessing and review of orders. When using OrderConnect for orders and results, Avatar Order Entry is typically not used. However, temporarily, the Order Code Set up is needed to define the ARRA Measures Reporting set up for lab test codes and medication codes. This will eventually be replaced with a new function outside of Order Entry. NOTE: Clients implementing Avatar Order Entry will still need OrderConnect to satisfy the e-Prescribing Meaningful Use requirement. Page 12 of 35 Copyright © 1997-2012 Netsmart New York Inc.

Avatar Meaningful Use Kick Off Guide NOTE: Clients implementing Avatar Order Entry can meet the e-Prescribing Meaningful Use requirement if they have an internal pharmacy that they send prescriptions directly to using an HL7 interface. OrderConnect Information Netsmart’s OrderConnect is a secure, Web-based prescribing and medication management system that can be operated stand alone or integrated within an agency’s existing systems. OrderConnect is an e-prescribing system that can create and transmit medication orders from the user’s computer to a pharmacy. OrderConnect is used for Outpatient facilities. There are no specific Meaningful Use set up requirements for OrderConnect. Details of OrderConnect implementation requirements can be found within the OrderConnect User Guides. Meaningful Use Requirements Implementing OrderConnect will satisfy the Meaningful Use requirement for: Computerized Provider Order Entry (CPOE) Electronic Prescribing Drug-Drug, Drug-Allergy Interaction Checking Drug Formulary Checking Medication List Medication Allergy List Medication Reconciliation Clinical Decision Support Using OrderConnect with Avatar CWS If OrderConnect is installed at an Agency, there will be no need to use certain Forms within Avatar CWS since the processes will be handled within OrderConnect.

Avatar Meaningful Use Kick Off Guide ARRA Measures Reporting A component of the ARRA EHR certification is the ability to produce reports (paper and electronic) on select measures. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) and state Medicaid offices will use these measures to determine if a provider qualifies for the incentive monies as well as to monitor key national health issues. Some items to note: Measures are for Ambulatory facilities and are provider based For Ambulatory facilities the report applies to ‘eligible’ providers only; all other providers are excluded. Eligible providers will be defined in Practitioner Enrollment by the addition of an ARRA eligible provider field The report does not include any client electronic protected health information (ePHI); only counts and calculations (denominator, numerator, exclusions, and percentage calculations). Measures are based on specific client services, age ranges, problems, medications, and allergies. New fields are available in service codes, problem codes, medications and allergies to identify those codes that apply to each ARRA measure. The measure denominator is the total number of clients, orders, etc. that comprise the initial population. For most measures this is the number of unique clients seen by the EP during the reporting period. The measure numerator is a subset of the denominator that meets additional criteria (e.g. only clients with Hypertension). The exclusion count applies only to a few measures (e.g. excluding clients with certain diseases or allergies). Measure Categories The measures are categorized as follows: Meaningful Use Measures (MUM) Clinical Quality Measures (CQM) Measures are reported in two formats: a human readable report (crystal report) and an electronic XML format (PQRI 2009 Registry XML Specification). Currently CQM are reported in both formats while MUM is reported in human readable report only. Measures Using Attending Practitioner Currently, the Attending Practitioner is used when processing the following ARRA Measures: ALL CQM Measures Electronic Copy to Clients Page 15 of 35 Copyright © 1997-2012 Netsmart New York Inc.

Avatar Meaningful Use Kick Off Guide Patient Reminders Medication Reconciliation Summary of Care for Transitions Out Future Development for Attending Practitioner There is Development in process that will limit the need to define the Attending Practitioner as an Eligible Provider. Below is an outline of what the future development will do: All CQM Measures- Will use the Rendering Practitioner Electronic Copy to Clients- Will use the Rendering Practitioner Patient Reminders- Will use the Rendering Practitioner. Each Eligible Provider who saw the client during the reporting period will get credit for this Measure. Medication Reconciliation- When using OrderConnect, the Medication Reconciliation Practitioner that is sent from OrderConnect will be used. When using Avatar Order Entry, the Practitioner who filed the Medication Reconciliation record will be used. Summary of Care for Transitions Out- Will use the Discharge Practitioner if the movement is a discharge. If the movement was not a discharge, then the Attending Practitioner will be used. Clinical Quality Measures (CQM) Ambulatory facilities are required to provide a minimum of 6 CQM: 3 core and 3 non-cores. If a core measure has a zero denominator the user must replace it with an alternate core measure If there are not 3 non-zero denominator core/alternate core measures then the user must replace them with non-core measures If any of the selected non-core measures have a zero denominator then the user must replace it with another non-core measure However, it is permissible to report a clinical quality measure that has a zero denominator if there aren’t 6 measures that apply to the clients served by the eligible provider. While there are 38 non-core measures, most are very physical health oriented. Initially, Avatar will include 4 non-core measures and more non-core measures may be added in the future.

This is the process where the EP reports how well they did “meaningfully using” a certified EHR during the reporting period. The ARRA Measures Reporting Form creates a report of the Meaningful Use Measures that EPs then enter to the state Medicaid or CMS website when doing the attestation. In a future ARRA stage this will become an electronic file report. Also keep in mind that the first participation year in the Medicaid incentive program does not require you to report MU measures. Below is a general overview of the MU Measures. The Minimum % column indicates the percentages for reporting. If the measure does not need to be reported, “NR” will appear in this column.

Practitioner Enrollment Form: The practitioner must be associated with ARRA reporting (Yes selected in the ARRA Reportable Measures field). The service must be rendered within the reporting period (From Date field to Through Date field). The client’s Attending Practitioner is an eligible provider. Future development will utilize other Practitioners, such as Rendering, for the ARRA Measures Reporting.

Launch the ARRA Measures Reporting Form to generate the ARRA Measures Reports for either the CQM Measures or the Meaningful Use Measures. Page 22 of 35 Copyright © 1997-2012 Netsmart New York Inc.

Avatar Meaningful Use Kick Off Guide The reporting date is important to the Clinical Quality Measure calculations that have criteria tied to the start or end date.

The field allows you to select 12 months, 6 months or 90 days. Medicare requires this 90 day period in the first participation year. Medicaid requires 90 days in the second year. NOTE: The 6 month time frame is no longer valid. An Eligible Providers will be reporting first on the 90 day reporting period and then the 12 month reporting period.
