Understanding Meaningful Use Stage 2

by | Aug 18, 2014 | Health

Stage 2 of Meaningful Use is a part of the Medicare and Medicaid Electronic Health Records (EHR) incentive program. The purpose of these incentives is to spur the use of digital medical records in health care facilities across the nation.

Electronic medical records are quickly replacing paper charts in the medical office. While the switch is a complicated and time consuming transition, it will ultimately give physicians, nurses and other professionals faster, more accurate access to information on all patients. We are proud to do our part as a leader in health care software.

Healthtec Software, Inc. provides a range of health care software for small and medium facilities. We have decades of experience, and are excited to participate in this fascinating stage of medical history.

Meaningful Use Helps Medical Facilities Go Digital

Stage 1 of Meaningful Use gave some flexibility to providers experiencing some challenges in making the switch to EHR technology. 2014 is the first year in which Stage 2 will be demonstrated. Two or three consecutive years of Stage 1 must be completed before Stage 2 can begin, depending on when a particular provider began the program.
