Qualify and take advantage of the Obama Stimulus Package for adopting EHR
The Oblama Healthcare stimulus incentives includes grant programs, education and technical assistance to help small and medium business physicians. GMD can assist with the new economic stimulus law to provide the doctors with financial and technical assistance to adopt health IT / EHR.
Small (five or fewer physicians working in a single office ) and medium practices face special challenges and require significant assistance to qualify, implement, effectively use health IT and ensure compliance with EHR.
Ravi Narayanan, Chief Strategy Officer, GMD observes that "There's a need for focused technical assistance for small and medium health care practices. Many physicians in these practices today definitely want to implement EHR, but feel constrained, not having the ability to invest in EHR technology systems. GMD can help physicians, including those in solo / small and medium practices, qualify / receive upto $25,000-$30,000 under Medicare in incentive payments for being meaningful users of electronic health records (EHRs)". He also beleives that "It is imperative that physicians follow a disciplined approach in purchasing EHR systems, including assessing needs, selecting a vendor, and implementing workflow changes to improve their clinical performance and outcomes"
On the compliance front, per the Health and Human Services Depart, doctors' offices and hospitals that refuse to adopt electronic records systems will have reduced Medicare and Medicaid payments.
