What is Meaningful Use
Using certified EHR technology in a meaningful
manner (which includes e-prescribing for
eligible providers and meeting the MU criteria)
Use
Connecting a certified EHR in a manner that provides for the electronic exchange of health information to improve the quality of care.
Connect
SubmitUsing the technology to submit information to CMS on clinical quality measures and other measures selected by CMS.

Adopt, Implement, Upgrade (AIU)
• In their first year of participation in the Medicaid incentive payment program, EPs may qualify for an incentive payment by demonstrating any of the following:
– that they have adopted (acquired & installed),
• implemented (commenced utilization), or• upgraded (upgrade to a certified version or expanded
functionality, e.g. CDSS, e-prescribing)

Volume Criteria
– General Rule: 30% patient encounters attributable to those receiving Medicaid. To be measured over any continuous 90-day period in the previous calendar year.
– 2 Exceptions:
1. If EP practices predominantly in an FQHC or RHC, must have 30% of patient encounters attributable to “needy individuals”
Definition of predominantly = over 50% of patient encounters over a period of 6 months occurs at an FQHC or RHC
Definition of needy individuals = receiving medical assistance from Medicaid or CHIP; receiving uncompensated care; or receiving care at no-cost or reduced cost based on a sliding-scale
2. Pediatricians may have at least 20% patient encounters attributable to those receiving Medicaid
