Supporting the health reform act
EHR = Electronic Health Records
American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA)
• Investing $19 billion in computerized medical records that will help to reduce costs and improve quality while ensuring patients’ privacy
• $1 billion for prevention and wellness to improve America’s health and help to reduce health care costs
• $1.1 billion for research to give doctors tools to make the best treatment decisions for their patients by providing objective information on the relative benefits of treatments
• $500 million for health workforce to help train the next generation of doctors and nurses.
• The HITECH Act, part of the ARRA includes Medicare incentives for adoption and “meaningful use” of certified EHR technology

Certification Commission for Health Information Technology (CCHIT)
Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (HITECH)
Policing the health reform act
The HITECH Act requirements are governed by:
• CCHIT - requires backup of 24x7 application operation that a UPS provides when integrated with the EHR system.
• Including a UPS is crucial to demonstrating meaningful use of an EHR system and thus eligibility for stimulus bill funding.
• Grants and Medicaid incentives begin in 2011 for those meeting the meaningful use clause.

HITECH Act
HITECH Act Regulations
• 42 CFR: Parts 412, 413, 422 and 495
• 45 CFR: Subtitle A, Subchapter D
• Subchapter D – Health information technology
• PART 170 – Health information technology standards, implementation specifications, and certification criteria and certification programs for health information technology

Additional legislation impacting healthcare
Public Law 104-191-Aug.21,1996• Health Insurance portability and accountability act of 1996
• Health care clearinghouse-The term 'health care clearinghouse' means a public or private entity that processes or facilitates the processing of nonstandard data elements of health information into standard data elements.

Typical question about UPS systems
Do I need a medical grade UPS system?
• UL 60601-1 or EN/IEC 60601-1 rated systems are used for patient contact equipment
• Standards are written around patient safety
• Medical Devices (MD)
• In-Vitro Diagnostic Medical Devices (IVD)
• MD devices typically need to meet UL 60601-1
• Syringe pumps, artificial respirators, surgical lasers, patient monitors
• In Vitro Diagnostic Devices (IVD) do not
• Centrifuges, hematology analyzers, blood/gas analyzers, other lab equipment.
Most EHR equipment will fall outside these requirements
