The 60-day comment period for the Meaningful Use Stage 2 proposed rule will end at 5:00 p.m. ET on May 7, 2012. The proposed rule may be found in the March 7 issue of the Federal Register. McKesson is interpreting the proposed rule, and we intend to comment on multiple aspects.

There are several characteristics of the Stage 2 objectives that you may want to note:

• • Stage 1 Menu objectives go to Core for Stage 2, with increased values.
  • A few Stage 1 objectives were clarified or changed.
  • New objectives added mainly target the exchange of patient data.
  • Payment adjustments are made for early attestation (to avoid penalties).
