Meaningful Use
Meaningful Use is a program whereby a certified electronic health record can meet a set of standards set by Centers for Medicare and Medicaid, which will result in a payback of money to the provider or hospital using the system to offset the cost of the EHR (Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology, 2015; Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, 2014).
Describe one standard from any of the Meaningful Use stages and explain what the benefit of the standard is to healthcare
