Healthcare IT News: At HIMSS18, CMS Administrator Seema Verma announced two potentially promising initiatives, MyHealthEData and Blue Button 2.0.
It’s 2018. We have the HITECH Act and its outcome: moving most healthcare providers to electronic health records thanks to the Meaningful Use incentive program. We have the 21st Century Cures Act and its promise of interoperability. We have the draft trust framework put forth under the Cures Act. We have the original HIPAA regulations, which together with the HITECH Act amendments, guarantee patients prompt access to their EHR data in the format requested by the patient, at a reasonable cost.
