The economic stimulus bill, passed as the 2009 American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, included provisions for health industry reform. Most of this funding was included in the “Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act” portion of stimulus bill.
There are eight key areas where funding has been allocated to stimulate the healthcare industry. In particular, there is an emphasis on providing funds for Electronic Health Record (EHR) software. Putting money into this sector of the healthcare industry will allow individual medical practices and the entire medical system to become more organized, streamlined and cost-efficient.
