There is good news and bad news about the EHR/EMR mandate.
Bad: The government mandated that all medicare and medicaid eligible professionals must employ certified electronic health records (EHR) technology by the year 2015… otherwise they will get fined.
Good: On the positive side, if you move your practice over to a certified EHR/EMR service now, you will get huge government incentives!
$18,000 per “billing entity” for the first year… in other words, $18,000 per doctor in 2011, $12,000 per doc in 2012, etc. (see chart below)
Eligible professionals can receive up to $44,000 over five years under the Medicare EHR Incentive Program.
...and...
Eligible professionals can receive up to $63,750 over the six years that they choose to participate in the {Medicaid EHR} program.
