NSSP Community of Practice Call

Meaningful use refers to the federal government’s 3-stage incentive to modernize the nation’s infrastructure, which includes the “meaningful use” of interoperable electronic health records. This month’s NSSP Community of Practice call is about Stage 3, which is mandatory in 2018 and lays out future requirements for eligible providers and hospitals (e.g., protection of electronic health information, health information exchanges, e-Prescribing). The call will include items of note for syndromic surveillance. This month’s call will be held April 17, 2018, 3:00–4:30 PM ET. Registration is required.
