The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) signed into law by President Obama last year will provide physicians with monetary incentives to use Electronic Health Records (EHRs) along with additional grants and awards to support the effort. A prerequisite to receiving incentive payments will require physicians to demonstrate "meaningful use" of an EHR.
