For the past few years, long-term and post-acute care (LTPAC) organizations were forced to watch as other healthcare providers and hospitals receive billions of dollars in incentive payments as part of the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) Electronic Health Record (EHR) Incentive Programs. But this has not stopped these organizations and collaborations from working to make EHRs, health information exchanges (HIEs), and other health information technology (IT) solutions significant features of their treatment of their unique patient population.
