As we discussed at the Executive Symposium at Netsmart Connections, Netsmart has been working hard in Washington with several other groups to get Congress to provide incentives to providers to adopt e-Prescribing. Last night our efforts were rewarded when Congress passed legislation as part of the Medicare bill.
This legislation provides a 2% incentive for physicans who use e-prescribing. For those of you using InfoScriber already please review this legislation to make sure you are prepared to capture the extra revenue. For more information take a look at the story at HealthCare IT News. For those of you considering it, this helps increase the ROI of integrating it with your Avatar, MIS or Insight electronic health records.
