We talk with hundreds of physician practices each month. Their biggest question: “What does the economic stimulus package mean for me?”

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.



We teamed up with Justin Barnes, Chairman of the HIMSS Electronic Health Record Association and Vice President of Greenway Medical Technologies, to help answer these questions. The original presentation was delivered last week, however you can view the entire webinar above. In this hour webinar, 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”
