Addressing 'meaningful use' regulatory challenges

Strategic investment in facility infrastructure services can help achieve long-term compliance


Addressing “meaningful use” regulations can be challenging, but strategic investment in facility infrastructure services can help achieve longterm compliance, according to a blog on the Schneider Electric website.
 
Facility infrastructure systems support healthcare organizations’ efforts at “meaningful use” compliance in a number of different ways.
 
One example is improving systems availability, as minor power fluctuations can impact the voltage requirements of sensitive electronics within healthcare systems and result in loss of data.
 
For instance, poor power quality will affect imaging equipment which is linked to patient data. Lost data can impact decisions on how to treat patients.
