Webinar: Learn how to deploy eCR to reduce reporting burden on health care staff without disrupting the clinical workflow
Electronic Case Reporting (eCR) is the automated generation and transmission of case reports from the electronic health record (EHR) to public health agencies for review and action. eCR makes disease reporting from health care to public health faster and easier. It moves data securely and seamlessly—from the EHR at the point of care, to data systems at local and state agencies. eCR also allows public health to more rapidly provide information back to health care professionals. For example, this timely data sharing provides a real-time picture of COVID-19 to support outbreak management.
Starting on January 1, 2022, eCR will be required by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services’ Promoting Interoperability Program (PIP) for eligible hospitals and critical access hospitals and the Merit-based Incentive Payment System (MIPS) Promoting Interoperability Performance Category for eligible clinicians.
