Stimulus

The ARRA and included HITECH act include stimulus payments for "meaningful use" of a "certified" EHR.   Even in this one sentence, there are a million questions.  What does "meaningful use" mean?  What is "certified", what is not?  These are questions that took over a year to define by the government and when finally defined, took over 1000 pages to do so.  Apex Health Systems is on top of the final rules and know what products are certified.  We will consult your office on what to do to help meet the meaningful use requirement and guide you through the stimulus payment submission process.  

The Stimulus money is on the table.  For the Medicare Stimulus, up to $44,000 per eligible provider is available.  For the Medicaid plan, there is up to $64,000 per eligible provider.
