HITEQ Health Center Behavioral Health Integrator Badge
Health centers are increasing the integration of behavioral health in primary care, spurred by an increased focus on whole person care and additional funding. Effective use of health IT in conjunction with patient privacy and confidentiality is imperative to support behavioral health.

According to the Office of the National Coordinator, "Health information technology can help to improve behavioral health care and can further enable care coordination and integration, increase information sharing, and support prevention, treatment, and recovery activities. Access to and the exchange and use of behavioral health information as part of routine care can help to improve continuity in care services and support efforts toward achieving an interoperable health care system across the continuum."

Eligible Professional Attestation Worksheet for Modified Stage 2

Medicare Electronic Health Record (EHR) Incentive Program in 2016

Although the reporting deadline for the 2016 EHE Incentive Program Reporting Period had passed, the new worksheet for 2017 has yet to be released by CMS. In the meantime, we recommend interested parties to use the 2016 worksheet as a baseline since the reporting items are largely identical, with the exception of various cut-off values.

The Eligible Professional (EP) Attestation Worksheet is for EPs in the EHR Incentive Program in 2016, and allows them to enter their meaningful use data to use as a reference when attesting for the Medicare EHR Incentive Program in the CMS system. Please note that this worksheet differs in format and presentation when compared to the Attestation User Guide and Attestation system.
For each objective with a percentage-based measure, certified EHR technology must include the capability to electronically record the numerator and denominator and generate a report including the numerator, denominator, and resulting percentage for these measures. However, eligible professionals may use additional data.

Patient privacy and confidentiality form a crucial component of the patient-doctor treatment relationship, particularly when seeking treatment for mental health or substance use disorders.
