DrChrono has implemented critical updates to align with the requirements set forth by the Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ONC) under the Health IT Certification Program’s HTI-1 final rule. A key focus of this initiative is ensuring that the Problem List aligns with the data standards specified in the United States Core Data for Interoperability (USCDI) Version 3 (v3).
Why This Update Matters
- Improved Data Consistency: Terminology aligns across platforms using standard coding systems such as SNOMED CT.
- Stronger Interoperability: Data exchanges more seamlessly with external healthcare systems and organizations.
- Regulatory Compliance: DrChrono meets the latest HTI-1 certification criteria, reducing the risk of non-compliance.
