The ISMA has received this clarification ...
It is not adequate simply to sign a computer-generated report.
It is expected the physician would read, measure, interpret, prepare a report of and sign the reading of the EKG. The physician may do this on the computer generated report and place it in the chart, or it may be done separate from the computer generated report; but the expectation is that the physician’s interpretation and the computer’s interpretation are separately identifiable even if the conclusions are the same. This would apply to any EKG/recording code that includes a physician report/physician reporting component.
