We have attested for most of our providers (single database, single location of care) that are in approximately 150 different physical locations. When deciding how to handle the CCD transmission to another healthcare facility, GE advised us that only 1 CCD needed to be sent, since all the clinics were on the same database and at the same location of caare. They also advised us that this was how other large institutions with the same setup were handling this. I'm looking to hear from other large installations with similar design to see how this was handled, and if you received the same advise from GE.
Thanks
We are sending a single CCD to our regional HIE triggered by a clinical list change. We are a multi-specialty ambulatory clinic. We don't have nearly as many physical locations but we do have a few. But we use MANY locations of care, at least 1 for each specialty and/or physical location.
We are using the Qvera product to do this.

We received the same advice from GE. We are a 20+ facility, multi-speciality, single database entity.
I'm looking for someone to test the transition of CCD with me. Any volunteers?
Email sent, thank you!
We are a single data base group with multiple facilities that remote to our central office. We were told by CMS that we would have to do one test per facility location. So we sent 1 CCD per facility site.
