Meaningful Use Measures:
If your practice is reporting for Meaningful Use, it is
important to be sure to categorize your diagnostic
tests and procedures appropriately so that your
measures calculated are accurate.
●Labs and Imaging will count toward MU
●Screens and Procedures will not count toward MU
Warning: if a category is not assigned to your test or
procedure then the diagnostic test will be listed in the
Lab category
Default answer = Pending
