7/23/2010 - For well over a year the healthcare community has been anticipating and trying to prepare for how to become meaningful users of health information technology (HIT) and the electronic health record (EHR) incentive program that rewards this use. The Meaningful Use Rule and the CMS HER Incentive program was authorized under the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act, or the "HITECH Act" established programs under Medicare and Medicaid to provide incentive payments for the "meaningful use" of certified EHR technology. These incentive programs are designed to support providers in this period of Health IT transition and instill the use of EHRs in meaningful ways to help our nation to improve the quality, safety and efficiency of patient health care.
Our presenters will present on two important aspects regarding the "Meaningful Use" Regulation. The first speaker will present on the Office of the National Coordinator for HIT's Temporary EHR Incentive rule and how safety net providers can adopt, implement, upgrade or demonstrate meaningful use of certified EHR technology. The second speaker from CMS will present on the CMS EHR incentive programs and how the safety net community to comply with the program when it begins in 2012.
