The Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ONCHIT) is seeking a budget increase. And part of that budget includes incentives for physicians who adopt EHR:
[T]he budget proposes $3.8 million for the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services to fund the second year of a demonstration project to offer financial incentives for as many as 1,200 physician practices to adopt certified electronic health records systems.
Updated to help physicians and practices understand the value of the latest 08 Ambulatory EHR criteria, the Physician's Guide to CCHIT Certification is designed to explain the benefits of certification and what more physicians need to consider when they are choosing EHRs.
The CCHIT Incentive Index™ is a constantly updated resource, tracking incentive programs that help physicians and clinics adopt certified EHR through financial assistance and incentives.
