CMS Press Release on new Prior Authorization use cases for esMD

2014-05-22 - Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services


The esMD (electronic submission of medical documentation) net is growing broader.  This proposed rule is much more than incremental savings to Medicare.  It will be another policy driver for health information exchange as envisioned by the esMD project.  

Health Information Handlers will need to evaluate how (or if) to incorporate these use cases into their workflows.  This is especially true for the few HIHs that are actual exchange platforms, like MEA (Medical Electronic Attachment).
