VersaSuite’s Electronic Health Record Receives ONC-ATCB 2011/2012 Certification
Austin, TX, February 25, 2011 --(PR.com)-- VersaSuite announced today that VersaSuite’s Electronic Health Record v8.0, is 2011/2012 compliant and was certified as a Complete EHR on February 24, 2011 by the Certification Commission for Health Information Technology (CCHIT®), an ONC-ATCB, in accordance with the applicable certification criteria adopted by the Secretary of Health and Human Services. The 2011/2012 criteria support the Stage 1 meaningful use measures required to qualify eligible providers and hospitals for funding under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA).
“VersaSuite is one of the very few fully integrated Electronic Health Records with modules that will help physician practices, small and large, demonstrate stage 1 meaningful use,” said Rodney Brown, Vice President of Sales and Marketing. “We believe this Complete EHR certification further distinguishes us as one of the leading and more robust healthcare software solutions in the industry. Additionally, the perfect score on the usability test (VersaSuite received a perfect 5 in product usability) is clear evidence that although we have a sophisticated technological engine, it is extremely user friendly.”
The ONC-ATCB 2011/2012 certification program tests and certifies that Complete EHRs meet all of the 2011/2012 criteria and EHR Modules meet one or more – but not all – of the criteria approved by the Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS) for either eligible provider or hospital technology.
“CCHIT is pleased to be testing and certifying products so that companies are now able to offer these products to providers who wish to purchase and implement certified EHR technology and achieve meaningful use in time for the 2011-2012 incentives,” said Karen M. Bell, M.D., M.S.S., Chair, CCHIT.
VersaSuite’s v8.0 certification number is CC-1112-721202-1. ONC-ATCB 2011/2012 certification conferred by CCHIT does not represent an endorsement of the certified EHR technology by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services nor does it guarantee the receipt of incentive payments.
