Incentive Programs

by CCHIT Staff

The following programs have been launched since the start of the certification process for electronic health record products in 2006. Details of financial investment or commitment are included if available. Numbers of physicians benefiting from programs, or offered an option to participate, are identified if disclosed. In some cases the exact number could not be determined because the incentive is at the practice level.
