According to the Certification Commission for Healthcare Information Technology (CCHIT), digiChart's OB-GYN Version 7.0 is a CCHIT Certified Ambulatory electronic health record (EHR) product for 2007 CCHIT. (Ambulatory EHRs are designed for physician offices and clinics.) The Certification Commission is an independent, nonprofit group recognized by the federal government as an official certification body for health-care information technology products. To obtain certification, the product had to meet a set of criteria for functionality, interoperability, and security (ensuring data privacy and robustness to prevent data loss).
