DIAMOND BAR, Calif., Sept. 8, 2011 /PRNewswire-iReach/ -- FutureNet's Electronic Health Record (EHR 5.0) platform has received the federal government's "meaningful use" stamp of approval by earning ONC-ATCB certification. The designation officially validates the company's EHR software capable of enabling providers to qualify for funding under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA). Tested and certified under the Drummond Group's Electronic Health Records Office of the National Coordinator Authorized Testing and Certification Body (ONC-ATCB) program, the EHR is 2011/2012 compliant in accordance with the criteria adopted by the Secretary of Health and Human Services.

"The certification confirms FutureNet can help providers be successful in the electronic revolution reverberating throughout the healthcare industry. Healthcare providers can now leverage our EHR platform to not only make significant care improvements but to achieve meaningful use and qualify for incentive funds under ARRA. We are proud to offer the complete, certified platform free of charge to our transcription service clients," says Wayne Wu, FutureNet's COO.
Drummond Group's ONC-ATCB 2011/2012 certification program tests and certifies that EHRs meet the meaningful use criteria for either eligible provider or hospital technology. In turn, healthcare providers using the EHR systems of certified vendors are qualified to receive federal stimulus monies upon demonstrating meaningful use of the technology -- a key component of the federal government's push to improve clinical care delivery through the adoption and effective use of EHRs by U.S. healthcare providers.
