API Method MuMeasuresGet
Contents |
Description
The following code samples describe the processes involved in obtaining Mu Measures
Prerequisites
1 This API call requires Vendor-level credentials. The credentials should be populated into the applicationId
and applicationPassword
fields of the auth
block:
{ ... "auth": { "applicationId": "vendorId", "applicationPassword": "vendorPassword", "accountId": "", "userId": "" } }
2 This API call requires a Practice/Account-level identifier. The identifier should be populated into the accountId
field of the auth
block:
{
...
"auth": {
"applicationId": "vendorId",
"applicationPassword": "vendorPassword",
"accountId": "practiceId",
"userId": ""
}
}
3 This API call requires a User-level identifier. The identifier should be populated into the userId
field of the auth
block:
{
...
"auth": {
"applicationId": "vendorId",
"applicationPassword": "vendorPassword",
"accountId": "practiceId",
"userId": "userId"
}
}

Core 17
Description
Gets unique list of patients within a set time-frame who have sent a message to any provider in the practice. Since all messages that originate on the practice portal are directed to the practice group inbox, any provider in the practice can see (and, thus, claim) the message in their numerator.
Destination Address
Request JSON
"beginning" and "ending" are both required. If the start of the date range is >= 2016, then both the beginning and ending must be for the same year

Core 7.1
MU Official Description
More than 50 percent of all unique patients seen by the EP during the EHR reporting period are provided timely (available to the patient within 4 business days after the information is available to the EP) online access to their health information, with the ability to view, download, and transmit to a third party.
How Updox Helps
Since our system does not track visits for the patients, the most information it can return is a list of PatientIds and Timestamps when their CCDA was sent to their Portal account. It is then up to the API consumer to match visits to CCDAs within the appropriate 4-day window. Note that an entry is made in the response list for each time a CCDA was sent to the patient's portal account - this means that it is possible (even likely) that a given PatientId will be listed more than once.

Core 7.2
MU Official Description
More than 5 percent of all unique patients seen by the EP during the EHR reporting period (or their authorized representatives) view, download, or transmit to a third party their health information.
How Updox Helps
Gets a unique list of patients within a set time-frame who have viewed, downloaded, or transmitted a CCD* document, and stores that count as numerator.
