Stage 3 in Meaningful Use focused on what primary goal?

Stage 3 Meaningful Use centers on using certified EHR technology to improve health outcomes. After establishing data capture and sharing in Stage 1 and advancing clinical processes and interoperability in Stage 2, Stage 3 focuses on outcomes—showing that the way EHRs are used actually leads to better patient health, safer care, and higher quality across populations. This involves leveraging EHR data to close care gaps, enhance patient engagement, improve care coordination, and meet quality metrics that demonstrate real health improvements. In short, the goal is to translate EHR use into tangible health benefits, rather than just more data or more processes.
