The federal government has issued two proposed rules outlining how physicians will qualify for health information technology incentive funds under Medicare and Medicaid. The American Medical Association has outlined the key provisions of the proposed rules in its Jan. 18 article "CMS unveils plan for how doctors, hospitals can get EMR incentives." MSV is reviewing the proposed regulations and will submit formal comment.

The "meaningful use" rules have set the bar too high. You are asking someone who has never used EHR to create registries and do population management which is unrealistic. We have used EHR for 8 or 10 years and have qualified as an NCQA Medical Home and we are struggling with these uses.
