CMS Releases Stage 2 Meaningful Use Specification Sheets with Details on Each Measure

CMS has added Stage 2 meaningful use specification sheets for both eligible professionals (EPs) and for eligible hospitals and critical access hospitals (CAHs) to help them participate in Stage 2 of meaningful use in the Medicare and Medicaid Electronic Health Record (EHR) Incentive Programs. The new specification sheets can be found on the Stage 2 page of the EHR website. Each specification sheet includes the objective, measure, and exclusion for each core and menu objective, as well as a definition of terms, attestation requirements, additional information, and the corresponding standards and certification criteria.
