“The Certification Commission for Health Information Technology is expected to release more details on its “modular” certification on Sept. 24, and it is also tentatively planning training sessions in Chicago on Sept. 29 and Oct. 1, to orient vendors and developers to new programs, including updated application processes, certification criteria and test scripts.
The modular approach to certification would tell providers that a healthcare IT product is capable of performing to provide meaningful use, a requirement under the federal stimulus law under which providers could receive bonus payments beginning in 2011.”
