Quality Reporting & Meaningful Use
Eligible professionals must report from the table of 44 clinical quality measures which includes, 3 Core, 3 Alternate Core, and 38 additional CQMs.Core CQMs - EPs must report on 3 required core CQMs, and if the denominator of 1 or more of the required core measures is 0, then EPs are required to report results for up to 3 alternate core measures. EPs also must also select 3 additional CQMs from a set of 38 CQMs (excluding the core/alternate core measures). It is acceptable to have a '0' denominator provided the EP does not have an applicable population.
Core Clinical Quality MeasuresMeasure Recommended Measure Title Recommended Measure Description

Quality Reporting & Meaningful Use
We have adopted the suggested approach for 2011 and 2012 that limits the required information on clinical quality measures results to that which can be automatically calculated by the certified EHR technology. As to non-certified EHR technology, the HITECH Act incentive program specifically requires the meaningful use of certified EHR technology.
Quality Reporting & Meaningful Use
We agree with the desirability of considering the three transmission methodologies listed in the proposed rule. The submission through a portal is the only mechanism that is feasible and practical for 2012 electronic clinical quality measure submission. We plan to test HIE/HIO and registry submission for future possible implementation through HITECH.
