I'm having issues with meaningful use I think because we're not ordering things through AC. I order a Pneumovax on our paper billing sheets, so it is not counted, even though it is given/documented in AC. What other things will not ordering labs/shots/etc. cause problems with meaningful use, and any work around?
Also, we send appt reminders through Updox, but these are not counted.
As far as the CQM's, for weight screening you just need to add V65.3?
None of my htn patients are showing up in the counter even though they have diagnosis of 401.1 added to their problem list.
And smoking check green box under SH and then check under decision support and document?
How do you codify an LDL below 100? Our labs are imported by Labcorp, but I guess AC doesn't recognize these?
Thanks for any help.
