We have just started exporting/printing the CCD as we attempting to meet criteria for meaningful use. Thanks to another thread, I started looking closely at the CCD, to see exactly what information we are providing to our patients and colleagues when we provide them with the CCD (either printed or exported).
Imaging my surprise when I see that nothing, and I mean absolutely nothing, from the "Plan" section of each encounter is included with each encounter in the CCD. WTF? Do the developers of AC think that the plan section is not important to the patient or other physicians? This section includes the starting and stopping of medications, the orders for labs and rads, and other very important parts of the record. The fact that this is not included in the record boggles my mind.
For now I will type everything in the assessment box, and cut the information from the Plan box to ensure that it is included in the CCD.
Does anyone know why this is, or have a better work around?
