You’ve come to this page thinking that NOSH ChartingSystem is Certified for Meaningful Use. Sorry, but that is not the case. You can see this page for reasons why. However, what I will make the case for is that NOSH ChartingSystem meets most of the criteria for Meaningful Use and more out of the box. Below is a list of the criteria for Stage 1 and Stage 2 for Meaningful Use and where NOSH ChartingSystem meets these criteria. I’ll be updating this chart as more objectives become defined in the future as well as the status of the only functionality missing in NOSH ChartingSystem.
