OP ryanjo Member Joined: Nov 2006 Posts: 2,084 Central Florida	Since this Board is on the leading edge of EMR commentary on the internet, I'd like to propose selecting a uniform derogatory term for "Meaningful Use" (MU), so that visitors to the Board might immediately understand the sarcasm implied. In an earlier post, Bert referred to this concept as "Unmeaningful Use". Although this meets the sarcasm level required, it can't be abbreviated as "MU". I propose two obvious terms: "Meaningless Use" and Meaningful Uselessness". Any other entries? I think it would be appropriate if Jon, our Board sarcasm guru and lover of orange birds, chose the winner. John Internal Medicine

My thinking: Give them what they want- those check box MT fields Take that what they give- the MUlah Maybe hire that new staff - MA- to do all this Something to talk about in MEetings Not to have regrets down the line that I did not do it More to this expansion of Non medical MU. http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/MU
