| Cleveland Clinic Expanding Patient EHR Access |
 Healthcare Data ManagementJune,07,2013 Joseph Goedert The Cleveland Clinic sometime in 2014 will make nearly all information in a patient’s electronic health record available via its Epic MyChart patient Web portal.
Patients currently can access via the portal their after-visit summary, medication and allergy lists, immunizations, diagnostic images and preventive care information. This month, the clinic will start automatically sending pathology reports to MyChart accounts after users have learned of the results from a physician. Beyond this information, patients wanting more of their record must contact the hospital to get hard copies--thumb drives or paper--of the EHR. Read Report

 EHR Incentive Program
Healthcare Professionals Did You Know? Non-hospital-based physicians and other eligible professionals can obtain incentive payments of as much as $44,000 under Medicare or $63,750 under Medicaid. Under both Medicare and Medicaid, eligible hospitals may receive millions of dollars for implementing and meaningfully using certified EHR technology.
About two-thirds (65 percent) of hospitals and 32 percent of office-based physicians plan to enroll in meaningful use programs by the end of 2012 in order to receive the maximum incentives, according to survey results announced Thursday morning. Fewer federal dollars will be available to hospitals and doctors that wait to adopt EHR technology, and failure to meaningfully use EHRs starting in 2015 will result in Medicare penalties. Watch this video about how to register for the EHR Incentive program.
