MU2 New Objectives

[KizerOpt]

So my doc decided he wants me to see if we can qualifiy for MU2. Looking at CMS, it seems they have changed their objectives/requirements from the last time I looked. However, my Crystal MU report doesn't quite match up. Is there a change in the works to match CMS' wording and objectives or am I just totally out of the loop and Crystal is right on top of this? Example: Objective 8, EP Measure 2 states at least one patient....views, downloads, etc. and I have 4 patients with % of .67.

I second the inquiry you have put forth! We have been tracking Meaningful Use measures for the better part of 2015. 

I know in October CMS did make a couple of changes to the required amounts for both the Patient View/Transmit/Download measure as well as the patient messaging measure. 

What is confusing is now CMS' web based documents and information are now listing the objectives and measures differently, and in a different order. There used to be 17 Core objectives and 6 Menu Objectives, but now it looks like they have grouped and condensed them into 10 objectives as well as taken some out?? I will post if I hear anything else over the next few days. I am supposed to have an appointment with James later this week to go over attestation for 2015

update to 4.4.4 and MU Measures report still has old objectives. Crystal, please advise on attesting with the new objectives and old info.

Thanks,
