"Meaningful use of EHRs
will enable providers to reduce the amount of time spent
on duplicative paperwork and gain more time to spend with their patients throughout the day."
-David Blumenthal, MD, MPP National Coordinator for HIT |
What we do
M-CEITA assists providers with selection, implementation and optimization of certified health information
technology to support the criteria required to meet "meaningful use" and improved care delivery.
The "meaningful use" criteria are the functionalities required to obtain Medicare/Medicaid incentive payments.
Why we do it
With over 500 vendors in the market, and a lot at stake for provider practices, choosing an EHR can seem daunting.
Federal policies resulting from ARRA add pressure to make the choice quickly - even as the specific qualifications
for 'certified EHR' and 'meaningful use' remain undefined. M-CEITA can demystify EHR selection and implementation
and help providers to meaningfully use EHRs. |
