August 23, 2012 | Diana Manos, Healthcare IT News and Mary Mosquera
WASHINGTON – The government released the final rules for Stage 2 of meaningful use on Aug. 23, with federal officials’ assurance that the public’s voice was heard. The rule is set to become effective for participants in the program no earlier than 2014.
Farzad Mostashari, MD, national coordinator for health IT said the Stage 2 rules will step up interoperability, but regulators did their best to employ “maximum flexibility” to reduce the regulatory burden, he told reporters on a press call.
“You will see many, many options for providers,” both on how to proceed and on the timing, he added.
“It does take time, we’ve listened and we’ve heard very clearly,” Mostashari said of the process.
