FACA Updates
HITPC Quality Measures Workgroup• The 2014 draft work plan for the first two quarters includes
certification to support quality reporting in LTPAC and BH settings.
HITPC Certification and Adoption• On Feb. 7th, the Workgroup had an in-depth discussion of the
Behavioral Health EHR Certification Draft Recommendations one at a time. Their objective was to determine which of the proposed areas of certification are “key heath IT capability needed” in the Behavioral Health care setting.
• The sixth proposed key area was Clinical Quality Measures• The group could not reach consensus on this topic, so ONC will
ask the Quality Measures WG to have a representative speak regarding opportunities for LTPAC and BH settings as they relate to future work.
FACA Meeting Updates, cont’d…
HITPC Certification and Adoption, continued•The LTPAC/BH discussion was continued in the Feb. 14th meeting.•The work group will finalize LTPAC/BH EHR certification recommendations by the next meeting.

• New certification criteria to support patient population filtering of clinical quality measures
• New and updated implementation specification for several certification criteria including ToC, CDS, and Public Health reporting
• Policy revisions that changes certification approach for ToC• Path for certification of ‘non-MU’ EHR technology• Codifies ONC regulatory guidance provided in FAQ issued in
2014 Edition Final Rule• Revision to 2014 Edition syndromic surveillance certification
criterion• Closer alignment with other HHS program policies(e.g. CLIA)
and to address OIG recommendations• Discontinuation of ‘Complete EHR’ definition and issuance• Solicit comment on new capabilities and standards-based
requirements for potential future certification criteria
2015 EHR Certification Criteria Proposed Rule:Specific Highlights

An Outreach and Educational Campaign onElectronic Health Information Exchange for Persons Receiving Long-Term/Post-Acute
Care Services
Standards and Interoperability FrameworkLongitudinal Coordination Care Workgroup
Pilots CallMarch 3, 2014
Jennie Harvell, HHS/ASPE
Educational Campaign on Electronic HIE in LTPAC
Agenda • Brief overview of Need for HIE with and by
LTPAC• Barriers to HIE by LTPAC• Draft HIE Curriculum for LTPAC Providers and
Methods of Delivery and Evaluation• Discussion: HIE education/support provided
and/or needed in Pilot Sites
04/18/23 19
Overview of Need
• Health Information Exchange (HIE) with and by LTPAC and BH providers is necessary to support transitions of care (ToC) and instances of shared care.
• Experts in ToC identify “improving information flow and exchange” as the most important tool to improve care transitions.
• Interoperable HIE has the potential to empower individuals and increase transparency; enhance the ability of health care providers, payers, and regulators to study care delivery and payment systems; and achieve improvements in care, efficiency, and population health.
04/18/23 Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology 20
Overview of Need
• Health Information Exchange at times of ToC and during shared care is often incomplete and impacts quality, safety, and costs of care:
– Significant percentage of adverse drug events (ADEs) occur at times of ToC and resulting in hospital readmissions and billions in unnecessary costs.
– Information is often missing when:• multiple physicians treat patients following a hospital discharge,
and • the patient is sent to the Emergency Department.
04/18/23 Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology 21
Overview of Need
• Health information exchange is expected to:
– improve communication;
– reduce medication errors and adverse drug events, unnecessary and redundant tests/procedures, avoidable hospitalizations and emergency room visits; and
– reduce health care costs.
04/18/23 Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology 22
Barriers to HIE with and by LTPAC• While some LTPAC providers use health IT and EHRs, their use lags behind that of
physicians and acute care hospitals, and use of HIE is even less common.– Approximately 43% of nursing homes (NHs) and home health agencies (HHAs) are
reported to have some type of EHR. Resnick et al 2009 (for NHs) and 2010 (for HHAs).– Only 6% of long-term acute care hospitals, 4% of rehabilitation hospitals, and 2% of
psychiatric hospitals have a basic EHR system.• EHRs (without HIE capabilities) are estimated to cost less than 1% of revenues for
for-profit mid-size NH chain providers and HIE costs have declined significantly.• There is widespread recognition (by providers and State and Federal officials) that
many LTPAC providers lack important information about HIT/EHRs and HIE, and that this a key barrier to their participation in HIE.
• Premise: Providing education/information about HIT/EHRs/HIE to LTPAC providers will accelerate their engagement in HIE.

Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology 23
Proposal: Pilot an HIE Curriculum focusing on Exchange with LTPAC
• Pilot an outreach and education campaign that focuses on HIE between LTPAC providers and others.
• The curriculum would target:– LTPAC providers (i.e., NHs, long-term care hospitals, in-patient rehabilitation facilities,
HHAs, and home and community based providers); and – their health information trading partners (e.g., physicians, hospitals, State Health
Information Exchange Organizations, Medicaid programs, etc.).
• The curriculum would be piloted using different delivery methods:

Webex National Conference Presentations
Local Face-to-Face Presentations/Small Conferences
Proposal: Pilot a HIE Curriculum focusing on Exchange with LTPAC
• The curriculum would include the following topics from the following perspectives:– Federal perspective: includes information on: benefits of HIE, HIT/EHR adoption
and use in LTPAC, business drivers for HIE, activities for accelerating HIE (e.g., incentives, program requirements, HIT standards, EHR certification, and costs).
– Local LTPAC Provider Perspective: includes information on: considerations/lessons learned during HIT/EHR planning, acquisition, and implementation (e.g., considerations and impact on work force, work flow, costs/benefits, and barriers/stumbling blocks and solutions (if any)).
– State Perspectives: includes information on: HIE activities the State has implemented/will implement that involve LTPAC providers and the type of information exchanged, technology used and methods for obtaining/accessing the technology, technology/exchange costs to the LTPAC provider, issues encountered in implementing the HIE activity and their resolution, and how the LTPAC provider can learn more.

PROs •Low cost for both participants and presenters
•Participants and presenters need to travel to conference
This approach is most likely to secure participation of appropriate LTPAC staff/leaders and their trading partners
CONs •Focused attention by participants may be difficult •Securing participation by appropriate trading partners may be difficult
•May not have participation of LTPAC decision makers and clinical leaders•Securing participation by appropriate trading partners may be difficult
High Cost for presenters
Evaluation •The effectiveness of the curriculum to impart information to participants would be compared and contrasted across each delivery method.
Discussion and Feedback
1. Do you agree with the premise that providing information about HIT/EHRs/HIE will accelerate provider participation in HIE activities?
2. Have Pilot sites identified the need for education on HIT/HIE among program participants? If so, for which participants?
3. What types of education/information have pilot participants needed?4. What methods have been used to deliver needed information to pilot
participants? 5. Have pilot sites targeted their education efforts to certain types of pilot
participants? 6. How do/could pilot sites assessed the effectiveness of their educational
efforts? 7. What resources have been/could be leveraged to support the delivery
of needed education/information to pilot participants?
