The lab will offer IT and data vendors two certifications for quality reporting capabilities.

The National Committee for Quality Assurance’s eMeasure testing laboratory has been approved by the Office of the National Coordinator for Health IT to be the newest ONC-Authorized Testing Lab for the IT Certification program.

Technology and data vendors can now use NCQA generated test decks for two certifications, officials say.

The first is ONC’s certification for reporting electronic clinical quality measures to CMS for the Quality Payment Program. The second is eMeasure certification for use in NCQA’s recognition for patient-centered medical home and as a standard supplemental dataset in support of HEDIS reporting, according to the group.
