The application for EHR Incentive Program funding is open now until April 3, 2015.
Grants are available as follows:
- $15,000 to support HIOs in their certification and P3N onboarding activities (one award per grantee)
- Up to $70,000 to connect each hospital to the HIO
- Up to $50,000 to create each ambulatory EHR interface and connect at least two ambulatory practices who use the EHR
“As more HIOs join the P3N along with their connected providers, more patients will experience better coordination of their care, faster access to their clinical results, and reduced redundancy of medical tests,” said Alix Goss, Executive Director of the Authority. “The bottom line for patients, providers, and the healthcare system will be improved patient safety and healthcare quality.”
