On
January 7, 2011, the Department of
Health and Human Services issued a
final rule establishing a permanent
certification program for the purposes of
testing and certifying health information
technology (‘‘Establishment of the
Permanent Certification Program for
Health Information Technology,’’ 76 FR
1262) (Permanent Certification Program
final rule). The permanent certification
program was renamed the ‘‘ONC HIT
Certification Program’’ in a final rule
published on September 4, 2012 (77 FR
54163) (‘‘2014 Edition EHR Certification
Criteria final rule’’). In the preamble of
the Permanent Certification Program
final rule, we stated that when the
National Coordinator had approved test
tools and test procedures for
certification criteria adopted by the
Secretary ONC would publish a notice
of availability in the Federal Register
and identify the approved test tools and
test procedures on the ONC Web site.
In the 2014 Edition Release 2 EHR
Certification Criteria final rule the
Secretary adopted additional and
revised certification criteria as part of
the 2014 Edition EHR certification
criteria (79 FR 54430). The National
Coordinator has approved test tools and
test procedures for testing EHR
technology to most of these additional
and revised certification criteria under
the ONC HIT Certification Program.1
These approved test tools and test
procedures are identified on the ONC
Web site at: https://healthit.gov/policyresearchers-implementers/testing-andtest-methods. The test tools and test
procedures for the ‘‘optional—
transitions of care’’ certification
criterion (§ 170.314(b)(8)) and the
optional testing and certification for the
‘‘view, download, and transmit to 3rd
party’’ certification criterion
(§ 170.314(e)(1)) have not yet been
approved. Draft test procedures for
§ 170.314(b)(8) and the optional testing
and certification for § 170.314(e)(1) are
available on the Web site listed above.
