Change Reason
Changed method from 'MDSv3' to 'OMB.1997' since the MDSv3 answer list is the same as OMB's combined race & ethnicity answer list (1997). OMB provides standards that promote uniformity and comparability for data on race and ethnicity throughout the U.S. Federal Government. These standards are widely adopted, including in the EHR Meaningful Use program within the U.S.
