Webinar/Audio Conference FAQs

The government is offering to pay you between $44,000 and $65,000 per physician to use an EMR, and providing millions in grants to help you select the right system. Learn how to qualify and earn the maximum allowable reimbursement (and avoid penalties), whether you already have an EMR system installed or not. Understand what subsidized resources are now available from the "Regional Extension Centers" (RECs) to help you get going.

Give us an hour of your time to learn about this once in a lifetime reimbursement opportunity, and get an update on the dynamic "meaningful use" and EMR "certification" issues that are crucial to qualifying.

How will this new technology affect practice cash flow? Review a sample EMR system budget and cash flow model, including government reimbursements. We will also discuss capital funding options, some of which are being created specifically to help fund EMR systems.

Learning Objectives:

  • Understand current regulations around Medicare and Medicaid EMR reimbursements.
  • Learn about newly available subsidized services to help you select the right EMR system for your practice.
  • Be able to articulate how "Meaningful Use" and EMR vendor "certification" relate to reimbursement regulations.
  • Understand new capital funding options and cash flows with reimbursement factored in.
  • Learn enough to decide if it’s time to install an EMR system.
