Webinar on Doctors and the Economic Stimulus Package

An ME-P TV First

By Ann Miller; RN, MHA

[Executive-Director]

Recently, we caught up with Houston Neal – of Software Advice – who thought our ME-P readers would like to see their new podcast on eHR stimulus funds. In-as-much as they are still hearing from doctors who want to know how to take advantage of the stimulus, they’ve teamed up with the Chairman of HIMSS to help answer questions via webinar. The final clip is now live on the blog.

And the Question … Is?

After talking with hundreds of physician practices each month, their biggest question seems to be: “What does the economic stimulus package mean for me?”  

Of course, practices understand that up to $45 billion is allocated to provide incentive for physicians to adopt eHRs. However, many questions remain about how and when providers will receive stimulus funds.

ME-P TV

The podcast, with Justin Barnes Chairman of the HIMSS Electronic Health Record Association and Vice President of Greenway Medical Technologies, seeks to answer these questions. The original presentation was delivered last week; however you can view the entire webinar here, as well.

In this hour webinar, we hope you’ll learn:

  • How the stimulus money will be paid out
  • What it takes to qualify for funding
  • Which specialties qualify for funding
  • How “meaningful use” is defined
  • What constitutes a “qualified EHR”

Assessment

There’s some great content here, so be sure to check it out.
