!!! Overview
[{$pagename}] is a set of criteria for [Electronic Health Record] ([EHR]) described in [Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health].
[{$pagename}] main components are:
* The use of a certified [EHR] in a meaningful manner, such as e-prescribing.
* The use of certified [EHR] technology for electronic [Health Information Exchange] to improve quality of [Health Care|HealthCare].

Meaningful use stage 1, stage 2, stage 3
Meaningful use is divided into three stages.
* Stage 1, which began in [2010|Year 2010], focused on promoting adoption of [Electronic Health Records].
* Stage 2, finalized in late [2012|Year 2012], increases thresholds of criteria compliance and introduces more clinical decision support, care-coordination requirements and rudimentary patient engagement rules.
* Stage 3, which the Centers for [Medicare] & [Medicaid] Services ([CMS]) rulemakers are writing from late [2014|Year 2014] through early-to-mid [2016|Year 2016], will focus on robust [Health Information Exchange] as well as other more fully formed meaningful use guidelines introduced in earlier stages.
[Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health] ([HITECH]) Act of [2009|Year 2009], organizations that are eligible for the [Medicare] [Electronic Health Record] Incentive Program and achieve meaningful use by [2014|Year 2014] will be eligible for incentive payments; those who have failed to achieve that standard by [2015|Year 2015] will be penalized, unless Congress overrides that portion of the 2009 HITECH Act that codified CMS's rulemaking timeline into law.
