o Assistance with the implementation, effective use, upgrading, and ongoing maintenance
o Broad participation of individuals from industry, universities, and State governments;
o Active dissemination of best practices and research on and for HIT, including EHRs
o Participation in health information exchanges; and o Integration of HIT, including EHRs, into the initial
and ongoing training in the healthcare industry

Priority for any direct assistance to:o Public or not-for-profit hospitals or critical
access o Federally qualified health centers o Entities that are located in rural and other
areas that serve uninsured, underinsured, and medically underserved individuals
o Individual or small group practices (or a consortium thereof) that are primarily focused on primary care.
![Page 20: Together For Quality Stakeholder’s Meeting](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56815d54550346895dcb5d11/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
o Just providing funds is not enough.o Many physicians don’t have the time for a thorough
selection process, or have bought systems and don’t use them or don’t use them to their fullest potential.
o No or limited use hinders the integration of up to date medical findings and preventive care.
o A primary reason for the lack of or inadequate use is the dramatic impact that EMR’s can have on work flow issues.
o REC’s can help with selection, workflow, and utilization issues so that higher quality care can be provided based a customized solution.
