The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA) will most likely drive the direction of healthcare in the United States for decades to come.  More specifically, health information technology initiatives stemming from the ARRA will increase dramatically before 2015.  In order to prepare your organization to benefit from ARRA, it is critical that you're asking the right questions: 

• What steps does my organization need to take to implement the right health information technology?
• Does our EHR allow us to prove the ARRA requirement of "meaningful use"?
• How can I best position my organization to benefit from the incentives being offered?

Whether you're a 500 physician health system, or a 5 physician practice, MBA HealthGroup can guide your organization through these questions and design a strategy for the best way to position yourself for success under the ARRA. We can customize an IT strategy specifically for your organization:
