January 3, 2011, marks the first day for hospitals to register their intent to achieve meaningful use and qualify for incentive payments under the HITECH EHR Incentive Program. To highlight this achievement, hospitals across the country are being encouraged to hold press events, on Thursday, January 13, 2011, and invite local physician practices as well as State and local stakeholders to join the event.
The College of Healthcare Information Management Executives (CHIME) and the Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society (HIMSS) will be coordinating this effort and will provide press support and instructions for participation. HIMSS will follow-up with all interested parties with further instructions.
