CY 2022 Real World Testing Plan for The Echo Group
This is the Real-World Test (RWT) Plan for CY 2022 for The Echo Group’s certified electronic health record (EHR) solution, Visual Health Record. We have two versions of our certified solution available, vs 11 and vs 12, and this RWT plan covers both versions. We will focus our evaluation testing on the most current version 12 as we transition our clients from version 11.
However, we will do some engagement with users of version 11 to have them self-report on RWT measures so that we can continue to improve the features of version 12. This plan provides the real-world test measurements and metrics that meet the intent and objectives of ONC’s Condition of Certification and Maintenance of Certification requirement for real world testing (§ 170.405 Real World Testing) to evaluate compliance with the certification criteria and interoperability of exchanging electronic health information (EHI) within the care and practice setting which it is targeted for use, which in Echo’s instance is behavioral and addiction health practices.
As ONC has stated in its rule, “The objective of real-world testing is to verify the extent to which certified health IT deployed in operational production settings is demonstrating continued compliance to certification criteria and functioning with the intended use cases as part of the overall maintenance of a health IT’s certification.” We have worked toward this objective in designing our test plan and its subsequent real world testing measurements and metrics.
This document builds toward the final testing measurements and metrics we will use to evaluate our product interoperability within production settings. Within each use case, we document our testing methodology for the measure/metric we plan to employ. We also include the associated ONC criteria, our justification for measurement selection, our expected outcomes from the testing, the care settings applied for this measure, and if applicable the number of clients to use in our real-world testing. We have included our timeline and milestones for completing the real-world testing in CY 2022, and information about compliance with the Standards Version Advancement Process (SVAP) updates. A table of contents provides easy access to any section, including the testing measurements and metrics found at the end of this document.
Our signed attestation of compliance with the real-world testing requirements is on the following page. Real World Test Plan – The Echo Group – December 2021 Page 2 of 24 Developer Attestation This Real-World Testing (RWT) Plan is complete with all required elements, including measures that address all requisite certification criteria and applicable care settings.
All information in this plan is up to date and fully addresses the health IT developer’s Real-World Testing requirements.

We have two versions of our certified solution available, vs 11 and vs 12, and this RWT test plan covers both versions. We will focus our evaluation testing on the most current version 12 as we are looking to retire version 11. However, we will do some engagement with users of version 11 to have them self-report on RWT measures so that we can continue improve the features of version 12.
