16. www.healthstory.com Health Story  Meaningful Use Meaningful Use Health Story Interoperability Strategy Delivers common clinical documents to the point of care Standardizing document types and sections today makes it easier to agree on data elements tomorrow Incrementally adding key data elements into narrative is attractive to clinicians Partial structuring facilitates natural language processing Health Story’s path to Meaningful Use  Hit the ground running with basic CDA, to meet the needs of front line clinicians  Incrementally layer discrete data elements into CDA documents
