§ 170.315(e)(1) |
View, download, and transmit to 3rd party |
- Updated to include a clarification for CCD Document Template on Diagnostic Imaging and Lab Test Results Narratives.
- The Inpatient Setting (e)(1) test data has been updated to exclude (b)(1) receiver XML samples for (e)(1)(i)(B) and (e)(1)(i)(C) test data. The (e)(1) test is limited to the C-CDA Continuity of Care (CCD) document generated by the Health IT Module itself which serves as the “floor” rather than a “ceiling”, and Health IT Modules may include at their discretion additional document types (such as CCDs) originating from other systems) as appropriate for different practices and care settings.

Removed the subset list of USCDI data elements from the paragraph (f)(5)(iii) clarification.
- Added clarification regarding health IT developer attestation for data element support.
