Goals Continued
• Addresses the role of health IT within HHS’s commitment to patient safety.
• Responds to ONC
sponsored IOM Report
• Builds upon existing authorities
• Seeks to strengthen patient safety efforts across government programs and the private sector

Questions:
• Meaningful Use and Safety Risk Assessment: – To improve the safety of EHRs, should there be a
Meaningful Use requirement for providers to conduct a health IT safety risk assessment?
– Are there models or standards that we should look to for guidance?
• Meaningful Use and Reporting: – Should ONC require any form of reporting/reporting
verification under Meaningful Use?

Questions:
• What should be the next steps in terms of EHR technology certification?– Certified EHR technology developers will be required to
publicly identify a method of incorporating user - centered design of eight certification criteria that have a high likelihood of helping to prevent medical errors (77 Fed Reg 54186-54189 (September 4, 2012)).
– Certified EHR technology developers will also be required to provide transparency regarding their approach to “quality management systems,” (77 Fed Reg 54189-54191 ((September 4, 2012))

Goals
•Health IT can improve patient safety in some areas such as medication safety; however, there are significant gaps in the literature regarding how health IT impacts patient safety overall
•Safer implementation and use begins with viewing health IT as part of a larger sociotechnical system
•All stakeholders need to work together to improve patient safety

Patient Safety Action & Surveillance Plan
• Learning: Increasing the quantity and quality of data and knowledge about health IT safety
• Improving: Targeting resources and corrective actions to improve health IT safety and patient safety
• Leading: Promoting a culture of safety related to health IT

Learning: Overview
Learning: Overview
• CliniciansEncourage and facilitate clinicians reporting of health IT – related safety events
• Developers Encourage health IT developers to embrace their shared responsibility for patient safety
• Safety Programs Incorporate health IT into existing safety programs, e.g. PSOs/AHRQ, CMS, AHRQ

Improving
• AHRQ/PSOAHRQ will provide technical guidance to help PSOs work with providers to mitigate harm and improve safety through health IT
• CMSCMS will provide guidance to surveyors and accreditation organizations to recognize health IT – related adverse events when conducting surveys on CMS’ behalf
• ONC-ACBsONC-ACBs will conduct live testing in clinical environments to determine whether clinician safety complaints are addressed and whether EHR safety features are performing adequately.
