The last time you needed cash, did you………..
Wait in line at the bank? Stop at an ATM?
DOS CME Course 20113
The last time you needed information, did you…
Use the card catalogue at the library?
Google it?
• Many daily tasks are easier and more convenient
• We save time
• We save money
• We can’t remember what life was like before
• We rely on many of these services
• When applied to medical care– Increased patient safety and service– Increased physician productivity– Decreased transcription costs– Improved billing cycles– On demand information access
Information Technology Benefits
DOS CME Course 20114
DOS CME Course 2011
Today’s patient is demanding a similar level of service from their health care providers.

• Clinical, workflow, administrative, and revenue enhancement benefits of the EMR– Outweigh barriers and challenges– Only if healthcare organizations redesign work processes– Train and motivate users to navigate EMR systems– Develop a common structured language
• Clinicians who use EMR– Electronic access to clinical information– Saves time– Provides a thorough and efficient way to manage patients
• ORGANIZED CLINICIANS ARE ORGANIZED !– And they will find the Holy Grail– Eventually– Maybe
Analyzing EMRs
DOS CME Course 20116
DOS CME Course 20117
Computerized Physician Order Entry• Streamlines entry of routine orders
– Eliminates re-entry of data collected elsewhere – Monitors ‘completeness’ and accuracy of orders
• Facilitates ordering decisions– Drug interaction checking (drugs, food, allergies, labs)– Alerts physician to other contra-indications– Offers physicians a review of “Best Practice” guidelines– Checks for duplicate orders
• Facilitates clinical follow-up– Offers overview of full patient list ‘at a glance’– Reports order status– Highlights overdue results and abnormal results– Offers ‘best practice’ guidelines re: next steps

HiTech Act
Every Life Deserves World Class Care
DOS CME Course 201110
EMR Political Landscape• February 17, 2009 President Obama signed the $787 billion

DOS CME Course 2011
EMR Political Landscape• $140 billion for “comprehensive healthcare reform”
– $19.5 billion to promote HIT adoption and implementation– Concern that system has flaws
– Over-treatment– Highly fragmented– Uncoordinated care
• Physicians and hospitals are eligible to receive portions of these funds based on– Having an integrated EMR system in place by January 1, 2011– Demonstrating EMR “meaningful use” as defined by a National
Coordinator for Health Information Technology committee
11
DOS CME Course 2011

DOS CME Course 2011
Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act (HITECH) Act
• Focus on funding for HIT– Promotion of HIT– Incentives for EHR use
• Specific topics – EHR Terminology– Immediate Funding for HIT Infrastructure and Implementation
Assistance– State Grants and Loan Programs– HIT Education– Medicare Incentives for Meaningful Use of EHR Technology
–Eligible Professionals–Eligible Hospitals
– Impact of Payment Incentives– Medicaid Incentives
14
DOS CME Course 201115
HITECH Focus • Enhancements that enable a nationwide health
information network– Nationwide health information network – Nationwide HIT infrastructure– Health information exchanges (HIEs) – Health information exchange organization (HIO)– Regional health information organization (RHIO)– E-prescribing gateway (e-Rx)
DOS CME Course 2011
HITECH Focus• Net opportunity of 19.5B investment in HIT systems
– Improve quality, safety, efficiency, care coordination, population and public health and value– Reduce health disparities– Engaging patients and families– Ensuring privacy and security– Authorizes CMS to provide financial incentives for eligible docs who meaningfully use EMR
• Use a certified EHR in a meaningful manner– Purchase certified EMR (www.cchit.org)– Demonstrate meaningful use of certified EMR (healthit.hhs.gov)
– 28 specific functions with EMR – Submit 29 quality measures to CMS to qualify for payment #1
– Bar raised in 2013 and 2015– Improved clinical performance on key health outcomes
– Payments up to $44,000 per physician over five years– Treat Medicare patients (Medicaid has different schedule)
– ePrescribing bonus available now– 2% of Medicare payments starting in 2010, decreasing thereafter, then penalties in 2012
– 5% reduction in payment for those who do not use EMR– Hospitals $2M over four years
• Regional Extension Centers– Educational and technical assistance govt funded agencies– Priority are rural, poor urban area, small group, primary care docs
• Care transformation is the goal with improved health system performance
16
Meaningful Use
Every Life Deserves World Class Care
EHR Terminology• Meaningful use of EHR:
– Eligible professional demonstrates use of certified EHR technology
• In a meaningful manner– Definition to be determined but you had better be meaningful– E-prescribing as determined to be appropriate by the Secretary– Exchange of information to improve quality of health care and
promoting care coordination– Reporting of clinical quality measures and other measures
selected by Secretary– Measures may become more stringent– HHS may not require electronic reporting unless there is the
capacity to accept data
18 DOS CME Course 2011
DOS CME Course 201119
Meaningful Use of the EMR• Hospitals and eligible professionals report that the EMR
has been implemented in a meaningful way such that the quality of health care will be improved
• Five Health care outcomes policy priorities1. Improve quality, safety, efficiency and reduce health disparities2. Engage patients and families3. Improve care coordination4. Improve population and public health5. Ensure adequate privacy and security

Meaningful Use “Finalized” Q2 2010
Year Engagement Objectives Engagement Measures2011 Provide clinical summaries for
patients for each encounter, electronic copies, access to patient specific educational sources
Percentage of patients with electronic access to clinical summaries, personal health information and educational resources
2013 Offer secure patient – provider messaging; upload data from home monitoring devices
Percentage of patients with access to secure messaging and implemented ability to incorporate data uploaded from home devices
2015 Access for all patients to PHRs populated in real time with data from EHR and electronic reporting on experience of care
National Priorities Partnership quality measures related to patient and family engagement and percentage of patients with access to real-time PHR
Adapted from Modern Healthcare June 22, 2009 page 6
Orthopaedic surgeons will have great difficulty in meeting the current 25 Meaningful Use standards. Orthopaedics would derive greater benefits from standards promulgated by our medical specialty society rather than a set of
generic requirements that mostly do not apply to musculoskeletal patient care.Thomas C. Barber MD, EMR Task Force team leader, AAOS NOW

MyConsult Outcomes
• Diagnosis– Correct 75%– With changes 15%– Incorrect 10%
• Treatment recommendations– No changes 36%
– Everything that has been done or will be completed matches our recommendations
– Minor changes 22%– Repeat or additional imaging studies, provocative testing to differentiate spine vs. hip, surgical approach
(open vs. MIS), change in pharmacologic dosing or plan for changing agents
– Moderate changes 25%– Changes in invasive procedures or studies needed before proceeding, additional work-up needed to
confirm best approach, change in pharmacologic agents (or incorrect agent noted), change in treatment modalities
– Major changes 17%– Disagree with current treatment plan. Current treatment path may lead to incorrect treatment often unless
further studies are completed.
• Significant health care cost implications
Additional diagnoses, further study to make best decision about intervention, i.e. spine standing or flexion/extension radiographs, pulmonary provocative testing
DOS CME Course 201195
Spine, Lumbar• 61yo F with back pain
– Trouble walking due to pain and polyneuropathy– Can’t stand straight– EMG with residual nerve damage from previous surgeries
• Multiple back surgeries since 2000– Fusion and then extension L1 to sacrum– Thoracic giant cell cystectomy– Residual motion at L1-L2
• Local MD recommendation– Extension of the fusion to T10
• Cleveland Clinic MyConsult second opinion– Dx is incorrect, Rx is incorrect– Pedical subtraction osteotomy– Previous surgeries did not place spine in proper lordosis
• Financial impact modeling prediction– Over $155K in unnecessary future expenses
DOS CME Course 201196
Crohn’s Disease• 55yo M with Crohn’s Disease, smoker
– 10 year history, using prednisone with some success– Failed Humira, MTX, imuran, Remicade, asacol and dapson– Diarrhea, rectal bleeding, mouth ulcers– Multiple colonoscopies and endoscopies (> 5), no granulomas– Limited to the colon– ENT Dx was Behcets disease
• Local MD recommendation– Extension of the fusion to T10
