every threshold had some providers on the borderline• Drug formulary, immunization registries and patient list

are the most popular menu objectives for EPs• Advance Directives, Clinical Lab Test Results, and Drug

Formulary for hospitals

• Transition of care summary and patient reminders were the least popular menu objectives for EPs• Transition of Care and Reportable Lab Results for hospitals
