CCHIT Announces New Certified Electronic Health Record Products
Chicago, Oct. 23, 2006 — The Certification Commission for Healthcare Information Technology (CCHITSM) announced today that 11 more products received CCHIT Ambulatory EHR 2006 certification status, bringing the number of certified products to 33.
A total of 17 applications for certification were received during the Aug. 1 to Aug. 14 application period. Of those, 6 withdrew their application, postponed inspection, or failed to satisfactorily demonstrate compliance with all of the CCHIT criteria.Ý
Ý
The CCHIT CertifiedSM mark — the only recognized "seal of approval" for ambulatory EHR products — provides the first consensus-based, consistent benchmark to help physicians reduce their risk when investing in this technology. The certification criteria have been developed to ensure that products provide a broad foundation of functionality, will evolve to deliver standards-based interoperability with other systems, and include security features to protect the privacy of personal health information. To be certified, a product must comply with 100 percent of the more than 200 CCHIT criteria.
