EDIMS 2.6 earns Module certification

EDIMS, a provider of emergency department information systems (EDIS) for hospitals, has announced that EDIMS 2.6, its emergency department EHR, has been certified as an EHR Module by the Certification Commission for Health IT (CCHIT), an ONC-Authorized Testing and Certification Body.

The 2011/2012 criteria support Stage 1 meaningful use measures required to qualify eligible providers and hospitals for funding under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, according to the Livingston, N.J, company.

The ONC-ATCB 2011/2012 certification program tests and certifies that Complete EHRs meet all of the 2011/2012 criteria and EHR Modules meet one or more - but not all - of the criteria approved by the Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS) for either eligible provider or hospital technology.

ONC-ATCB 2011/2012 certification conferred by CCHIT does not represent an endorsement of the certified EHR technology by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, nor does it guarantee the receipt of incentive payments.
