What are SAFER guides?

SAFER Guides consist of nine guides organized into three broad groups. These guides enable healthcare organizations to address EHR safety in a variety of areas. This required attestation measure is an attestation of completing the High Priority Practices Guide. Learn more about the SAFER Guides here. Safety Assurance For EHR Resilience (SAFER) Guides are intended to provide a series of checklists for best practices on EHR use across an organization. If your practice has been interested in ensuring certain workflows for security, privacy, or other are being followed, this may be a good opportunity to utilize an existing best practice worksheet designed by the Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ONC).
