Panel "Does Meaningful Use Mean Meaningful Change?" Unlike the first stage of the meaningful use incentive program, for which providers had to demonstrate they were capable of performing certain tasks, stage two will require practices to actually perform those tasks. As this deadline looms beginning in January 2014 with a deadline of October 2014, hear from providers that are ready to demonstrate stage 2 MU and those still in the planning process. Panelists will cover practical strategies to navigate the various requirements to make sure you and your organization are ready for stage 2 MU. Learning Objectives: ∙ Strategies for patients to view their paperless record ∙ How to effectively send reminders to foster preventative care ∙ Ensuring secure data exchange while improving quality of care Moderator: Gabe Perna, Associate Editor, Healthcare Informatics Ken Ong, MD, MPH, CMIO, New York Hospital Queens Norm Chapin, MD, CMIO & Medical Director, Columbia Memorial Hospital Joanne Rohde, CEO
