You can find more information about our IRM process here.
The Certified EHR Technology (CEHRT) Certification Program
CEHRT certification ensures that EHR systems meet specific standards set by the ONC, which provides healthcare organizations with the assurance that their EHR system meets industry standards, facilitates interoperability, enhances patient safety, and supports the organization’s goals for quality care delivery. The EHI Export module is certified under the CURES Update Certification measure (b)(10). It allows for the export of patient electronic health data in a standard computable format such as JSON, XML, and CSV. With this functionality, healthcare providers can effortlessly export summary data and contribute to improved care coordination.
