Certification by Drummond Group for EHR Modular (Inpatient)
Potomac, MD, March 11, 2014 – The CodoniXnotes V3.0 EHR has been tested and certified under the Drummond Group's Electronic Health Records Office of the National Coordinator Authorized Certification Body (ONC-ACB) program. This EHR Modular Inpatient software is compliant in accordance with the criteria adopted by the Secretary of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.
“The certification validates that our software is recognized to be fully compliant with the meaningful use requirements set up by the federal government. Our users not only can leverage our software to make significant care improvements but to also achieve meaningful use and qualify for federal incentive funds. We are proud to offer providers the opportunity to truly improve care in their communities,” says Dr. Andrew Muchmore, Chairman and CEO.
Drummond Group’s ONC-ACB certification program certifies that EHRs meet the meaningful use criteria for either eligible provider or hospital technology. In turn, healthcare providers using the EHR systems of certified vendors are qualified to receive federal stimulus monies upon demonstrating meaningful use of the technology – a key component of the federal government’s push to improve clinical care delivery through the adoption and effective use of EHRs by U.S. healthcare providers.
