title: Final EHR rules make compliance easier but relief is temporary.
abstract: The final federal rules make it easier to meet Stage 1 requirements, but are not expected to significantly change the outcomes expected by the conclusion of Stage 3 in 2015. Practices that have not already done so should begin a detailed planning process, as outlined above, so they can meet Stage 1 requirements by the deadline at the end of 2012.
