ONC SAFER patient identification self assessment

In January of 2014 the ONC released a Safety Assurance Factors for EHR Resilience (SAFER) report on patient identification. This is a self assessment tool to be used by healthcare organizations that want to determine how well they are doing in the patient identification area. It focuses on 14 measures of patient identification quality.
