Effective smartData Software Solutions Help you Qualify ARRA Incentives

The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, abbreviated as ARRA, have been enacted by the American government to help the nation's economy recover from a decade-long recession. ARRA provides various economic stimulus packages to promote investments in American goods, technologies and to save and create jobs.

The Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (HITECH) Act is an integral part of ARRA that concentrates on Healthcare Information Technology (HIT). In case of HIT, technology represents computers and communication derives that can be networked into a system for storing and moving health related information. The goal of the HITECH act is adoption and 'meaningful use' of Electronic Health Records (EHR) by the healthcare providers to achieve significant improvements in healthcare.

The HITECH act promises incentives for those health practitioners who adopt and use ‘Certified EHRs’. Doctors who fail to adopt an EHR by 2015 will be penalized 1% of Medicare payments that will increase up to 3% over the next three years.

By the meaningful use of EHRs, the US government intends to improve healthcare coordination by reducing healthcare disparities as well as engaging patients and their families in healthcare to maintain privacy and security.

The Meaningful Use of EHR means, the use of a certified EHR:

1. Software such as e-prescribing
2. For effective exchange of health information to improve the quality of healthcare
3. To submit clinical/medical attributes and other measures
