Meaningful Use View, Download, Transmit Measure Detail

Location: Admin

 

You need Admin privileges to complete this function.

 

The Meaningful Use Measures Reporting in this application is intended for practices that use an EHR system that is not integrated with the Updox Patient Portal (i.e. the EHR doesn't use the Updox API to pull the measure data into the EHR's measure calculations) but the EHR system does have functionality to sync patients with Updox.

 

 

The View, Download, Transmit measure pertains to the Patient Portal. It evaluates the number of patients who did access (view, download, or transmit) their healthcare information online. Healthcare information refers to the Continuity of Care Document (CCD) that you create within your EHR system then send to the Updox Patient Portal. It includes clinical info such as the patient's problems, medications, allergies, lab results, etc.

 

This report lists the patients included in the raw numerator for the selected Incentive Program and reporting period date range. The report columns are:

•Patient Name

•Date of Birth

•EHR ID

•View Date

•Download Date

•Transmit Date

 

To view the report:

1.Click MENU > Admin > MU Measures Reporting.

2.Select the Incentive Program.  (This measure is not applicable to MU Stage 1.)

3.Select the reporting period Date Range.

4.Select the report: View, Download, Transmit Detail.

5.Click Search.

 

To download the report:

1.Click DOWNLOAD CSV.

2.Save the file to your computer.

3.To view the downloaded report, open the file using a program that can read a Comma Separated Value (CSV) file (e.g. Microsoft Excel).

 

 

Do not use the Meaningful Use Measures Reporting within Updox if your EHR software is integrated with the Updox Patient Portal. You'll want to use your EHR's reporting instead.

 

In the annual MU Attestation for each provider, do not use the values directly from the Updox reports. There are additional steps to calculate the measures.

 

These values are considered "raw" numerators since additional information is needed from your EHR system to completely calculate the measure (i.e. which patients did each provider see during the reporting period).
