Join the MUVment! Meaningful Use Vanguard Program

ONC has developed the Meaningful Use Vanguard EHR Champion Program and is asking for anyone interested to contact their REC partner.

MUVers (members of the MUV program) are champions of EHR adoption and meaningful use that serve as local leaders, advisors and role models in the move toward an electronically-enabled health care system.

MUVers are those that have made the transition to paperless systems, have had success using EHRs in patient care, experienced data exchange, are proficient in more advanced EHR applications and/or interested and willing to share experiences, help peers and educate patients on EHRs.

As a MUVer, you may be asked to share your experiences and best practices, provide case study material for education purposes, be a speaker or spokesperson as part of your REC’s efforts and provide feedback and counsel on topics, tools and materials such as identifying areas for education, evaluation EHR implementation and meaningful use tools, pilot test new EHR applications and advise on EHR gaps.

If you are interested and would like more information, please contact Tracy McDonald, HIT Program Coordinator.
