MU Stage III Receives Huge Push Back from Physicians

13 May 2016

Since the proposed ruling released on March 20, 2015 by the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) for MU Stage 3, the majority of physicians in the U.S. are rallying against most of these proposed requirements. The majority of these physicians agree patients should have access to their health records online. However, the majority of physicians also agree that idea of the physician being responsible for ensuring a specific number of patients actually access their health records online should be dropped from the ruling. The new ruling requires physicians to be responsible for ensuring that more than 25% of patients their patients have access to their health records, ensure that physicians collect patient-generated health data for more than 15% of patients and ensure that 35% of patients receive secure messaging between the patient and physician.
