ASC Eligibility for Government Monies for Instituting EHRs: Q&A With Todd Logan of SourceMedical

Todd Logan, MBA, is regional vice president of sales for SourceMedical.
 
Q: Are ambulatory surgery centers eligible for the government monies that the hospitals and physicians are receiving for instituting electronic health records?
 
Todd Logan: ASCs are not yet eligible for stimulus funds, but we anticipate ASCs being required to document electronically in the next few years.

We doubt there will be a financial stimulus attached, but rather a reduction in reimbursement if they are not documenting electronically.
