At the time of this writing, [the CHPL](https://chpl.healthit.gov/#/search) lists 70 EHRs have certified the (b)(10), out of 708 total. The requirements are summarized as follows: ✅ All data for a specific patient can be exported ✅ Machine readable format ✅ Timely export ✅ Self-service, can be done without contacting support For those new to EHRs,** it can come as a surprise that it isn't a requirement that a patient's data be exportable in machine readable format**. This criteria is relatively recent, and a result of the [21st Century CURES Act](https://www.congress.gov/bill/114th-congress/house-bill/34). We believe it is a great benefit to our industry and for patients. Medplum's implementation is [open source](https://github.com/medplum/medplum) and we believe we are the only open source implementation of this criteria so far. **For data management certification criteria, the key benefit of open source is composability.** Instead of ripping and replacing a huge monolithic system that needs to conform to one or more complex compliance frameworks, you can progressively enhance an implementation to fit the requirements of your specific scenario. ## Related Reading - [Medplum's Compliance Documentation](/docs/compliance) - [Composability and Standards](/blog/composability-medplum) - [What is ONC Certification](/blog/what-is-onc-certification)
