Within ARRA, the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (HITECH) Act specifically targeted healthcare by providing the means to structure a paperless national health information network.

Within the provisions of the Act, defined "eligible professional” healthcare providers are eligible for up to $44,000 or $63,750 per provider. Learn More >
