Use of flow sheets, demonstration of EHR prompts or other evidence of guideline implementation with which the provider is alerted when a specific service or action is needed at the point of care, based on evidence-based guidelines, would meet the intent of KM 20. In addition to the evidence, practices must also provide information on the condition addressed by the clinical decision support and the source of the evidence-based guideline on which the clinical decision support is based.
Flow charts, copies of guidelines or empty templates do not demonstrate implementation of clinical decision support. These items show the guideline, but do not demonstrate its use at the point of care
