Target Outcomes
- Alignment with Meaningful Use
- The product of this initiative will help providers achieve meaningful use of HIT and their quality improvement goals through addressing a known barrier to CDS development, adoption, and implementation
- Repositories or catalogues can emerge, supplied by a range of content creators such as societies or content vendors, whereby CDS artifacts can be selected and imported into HIT systems
- Each intervention will represent a standardized expression of a guideline that can be accessed by EHR system developers and users to simplify the process of incorporating guidelines into EHRs
- Clinical Decision Support Services can interact with EHRs and/or other Health Information Technology implementations
- Alignment with other S&I Initiatives, e.g., Query Health (HQMF)
- Close the gap between standard availability and widespread use/value
- Perform outreach to medical professional societies and guidance authors to promote their development of CDS interventions in addition to traditional guideline publications
