Educate. Collaborate. Share. Network.
Hello! The HIMSS Clinical Decision Support (CDS) Task Force helps guide and execute HIMSS efforts to ensure that CDS delivers on its promise to improve care delivery and outcomes.
What's a Wiki? A wiki is an easy-to-use Web site that makes it easy to collaborate. You can use it to run a project at work, plan a trip, teach a class, etc. Click here for a wiki demo on YouTube.
View PowerPoint about Wikis.
Why a Wiki? The wiki provides a forum where stakeholders can come together to help develop, use, and discuss Task Force deliverables. The links below provide access to pages where this conversation and work is unfolding. Please browse this home page and links, and join us on this important performance improvement journey.

Primary CDS Task Force Activity Areas (July 2009- June 2010)
1. Applying CDS to VTE:
Visitors to the wiki will find the results of nearly a year’s worth of Task Force effort, focused primarily on sharing best CDS practices for optimizing VTE prophylaxis. The Task Force hopes that new participants will find the VTE/CDS information valuable for their own efforts, appreciate that the current material is more of a beginning than and endpoint, and participate actively in refining and expanding it. In addition, there are discussion placeholders for other topics the Task Force hopes to explore along with new participants

2. Meaningful Use: Linking HIMSS CDS Implementation Guidance to MU Criteria
Many of the criteria for acheiving the 'meaningful use' of EHRs that are required for providers to receive stimulus funding under ARRA depend directly, or are facilitated by, successful CDS deployment. HIMSS has provided extensive guidance for successful CDS implementation, and under this project we are assembling portions of this guidance that speak directly to individual meaninful use requirements. In addition, we invite CDS implementers to share 'pearls' from their experiences on successfully applying CDS to specific items required for meaningful EHR use.
