| dc.description.abstract | Meaningful Use program in the U.S., encourages the use of Electronic Health Records(EHRs). A number of incentive programs have been set up to adopt EHRs and exhibit Meaningful Use. To obtain incentives, the providers are required to give an account of their Medicaid encounters and meet the Meaningful Use standards. The electronic Medicaid Incentive Program Payment(eMIPP) system maintains this account. This system is used by the Maryland Department of Health(MDH), for registration and attestation of eligible providers. This study provides the factors to be considered while measuring EHR adoption levels. To assist in making informed decisions while providing incentives, this study aims at (1) determining factors affecting the meaningful use compliance for Medicaid providers, (2) determining the level to which the determined factors in (1), affect the Meaningful Use compliance, and (3) providing a tool, that automates the process of computing descriptive statistics based on reported values. | |
