Please join us for a engaging review of the "Meaningful Use" final rule released by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS). The final rule details the requirements physicians must satisfy to be eligible for financial incentives for the adoption and “meaningful use” of healthcare information technology under the HITECH (Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health) Act.
We pulled together a team of experts that discussed the "Meaningful Use" incentives and how technology will fuel healthcare reform. We also answered questions during a live Q&A session.
