Before you buy that EMR

CCHIT, or the Certification Committee for Health Information Technology

This is the latest compilation of electronic medical records that meet the standards regarding functionality, and interoperability

CCHIT’s inspection process is a rigorous test of electronic health record (EHR) products using two methods: jury-observed demonstration and inspection of self-attestation materials.

To complete this testing, CCHIT empanels a team of three clinical jurors, one of whom must be a practicing physician, and an IT security evaluator to assess a product’s conformance to the CCHIT certification criteria. The inspection occurs by observing the performance of the applicant’s product in executing a series of test scripts and reviewing required materials supplied by the applicant.

Choose CCHIT CertifiedSM Products
CCHIT is the recognized certification authority in the United States for EHR products - an independent, private-sector organization that sets the Gold Standard for EHRs.
A CCHIT CertifiedSM seal assures you that an EHR product meets basic requirements for:
· functionality (ability to carry out specific tasks)
· interoperability (compatibility with other products) and
· security (ability to keep your patients' information safe)
CCHIT works with all its stakeholders to gain consensus on certification criteria and testing processes related to the industry standards produced by healthcare standards development organizations (SDOs). Certification is a mechanism for enhancing the confidence and orderliness of the HIT marketplace. The inspection and testing process performed when certifying HIT products is based on agreed-upon standards, as well as unbiased inspection and/or testing.
Certification for ambulatory EHR products is available in 2006; inpatient EHR products will follow in 2007. CCHIT’s certification criteria and processes are created and piloted with physician input. CCHIT’s product test teams include three clinically experienced jurors, one of which must be a physician.
