Question

You have been asked to work with your healthcare system’s physician practices as they work to acquire and implement electronic records. How would you explain current incentives to adopt electronic record systems and the significance of selecting systems that meet Certification Commission for Health Information Technology (CCHIT) certification for reimbursement purposes?

Answer 1

I will explain the new incentives about the benefits of using electronic health record and will encourage them to use and have a experience of health information technology. The benefits are :-

- less time is required

- more time for patient care

- simple and flexible ,from anywhere we can login and use

- security and safety by provision of individual login IDs

- helps to get advanced knowledge in computers

- less work as compared to paper work

I will emphasis on use of software or systems that meet Certification Commission for Health Information Technology because it is one of the licence approved health information technology and it is approved by medical reimbursement also.
