HIPAA administrative simplification: enforcement. Interim final rule; request for comments. (2/82)

The Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) adopts this interim final rule to conform the enforcement regulations promulgated under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA) to the effective statutory revisions made pursuant to the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act (the HITECH Act), which was enacted as part of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA). More specifically, this interim final rule amends HIPAA's enforcement regulations, as they relate to the imposition of civil money penalties, to incorporate the HITECH Act's categories of violations, tiered ranges of civil money penalty amounts, and revised limitations on the Secretary's authority to impose civil money penalties for established violations of HIPAA's Administrative Simplification rules (HIPAA rules). This interim final rule does not make amendments with respect to those enforcement provisions of the HITECH Act that are not yet effective under the applicable statutory provisions. Such amendments will be subject to forthcoming rulemaking(s).  (+info)

A framework for predicting EHR adoption attitudes: a physician survey. (3/82)

With a focus on improving the quality of patient care, the President George W. Bush called for electronic health records (EHRs) for all Americans by the year 2014; however, recent estimates for EHR adoption in the ambulatory care environment are just over 10 percent. The objective of this study was to determine the individual characteristics and the social and technical factors that may contribute to physician acceptance of EHRs. This first paper of a two-part study presents a framework grounded in Diffusion of Innovations theory and the Technology Acceptance Model, which was developed using case study and survey methods, and tested using structural equation modeling (SEM). Model variables explained over 73 percent of the variance in attitude toward EHRs, and acceptable model fit was achieved. Lack of user acceptance continues to impede diffusion of EHRs, and this analysis supports the impact that leadership and other organizational changes have on user adoption.  (+info)

Exploring medical identity theft. (4/82)

The crime of medical identity theft is a growing concern in healthcare institutions. A mixed-method study design including a two-stage electronic survey, telephone survey follow-up, and on-site observations was used to evaluate current practices in admitting and registration departments to reduce the occurrence of medical identity theft. Survey participants were chief compliance officers in acute healthcare organizations and members of the Health Care Compliance Association. Study results indicate variance in whether or how patient identity is confirmed in healthcare settings. The findings of this study suggest that information systems need to be designed for more efficient identity management. Admitting and registration staff must be trained, and compliance with medical identity theft policies and procedures must be monitored. Finally, biometric identity management solutions should be considered for stronger patient identification verification.  (+info)

Health information technology: initial set of standards, implementation specifications, and certification criteria for electronic health record technology. Interim final rule. (5/82)

The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) is issuing this interim final rule with a request for comments to adopt an initial set of standards, implementation specifications, and certification criteria, as required by section 3004(b)(1) of the Public Health Service Act. This interim final rule represents the first step in an incremental approach to adopting standards, implementation specifications, and certification criteria to enhance the interoperability, functionality, utility, and security of health information technology and to support its meaningful use. The certification criteria adopted in this initial set establish the capabilities and related standards that certified electronic health record (EHR) technology will need to include in order to, at a minimum, support the achievement of the proposed meaningful use Stage 1 (beginning in 2011) by eligible professionals and eligible hospitals under the Medicare and Medicaid EHR Incentive Programs.  (+info)

Mission-driven priorities: public health in health information exchange. (6/82)

Developing state- and nationwide health information exchange (HIE) is one of the health priorities defined in the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. States are expected to take leadership in statewide planning and implementation. To balance limited resources among mandated responsibilities and emerging HIE accountability, we maintain that state public health practitioners must integrate HIE into our mission-driven practice in five priority areas: 1) connecting real-time disease surveillance and notifiable case reporting through HIE to better protect citizens; 2) sharing public health-managed clinical information through HIE for preventive services, 3) conduct health education for targeted populations via HIE to promote healthy lifestyles; 4) leverage public health informatics with Medicaid information system to provide quality healthcare; and 5) serve as a regulator for standardized HIT to participate in healthcare reform. We summarize public health's broad practice into "Five P's" and link each domain's historical foundation, current and proposed practices to sustain success.  (+info)

For its Recovery Act Signature Project, NHGRI selected the development of technologies that can sequence a human genome for $1,000 or less. NHGRI leadership thinks that truly inexpensive genomic sequencing will revolutionize health and medicine, and Recovery Act funding will accelerate the Institutes research program in this area.. The success of the Human Genome Project was made possible by significant reductions in DNA sequencing costs that were fueled in large part by tools, technologies and process improvements developed as a result of NHGRI funding. To continue its efforts to make sequencing a routine tool in both research and medicine, NHGRI subsequently launched two programs, in 2004, to further accelerate the development of sequencing technologies and reduce the cost of sequencing. The goal of the first program - to produce high-quality sequence of the amount of DNA found in a human genome for $100,000 - has already been achieved. Ultimately, NHGRIs vision is to cut the cost of ...

The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) established a Hypocrisy Hall of Fame to list Republican Representatives who had voted against ARRA but who then sought or took credit for ARRA programs in their districts. As of September 2011, the DCCC was listing 128 House Republicans in this category.[88] Newsweek reported that many of the Republican legislators who publicly argued that the stimulus would not create jobs were writing letters seeking stimulus programs for their districts on the grounds that the spending would create jobs.[89]. The stimulus has been criticized as being too small. In July 2010, a group of 40 prominent economists issued a statement calling for expanded stimulus programs to reduce unemployment. They also challenged the view that the priority should be reducing the deficit: Making deficit reduction the first target, without addressing the chronic underlying deficiency of demand, is exactly the error of the 1930s.[90]. In July 2010, the White House Council ...

By Eric Sauter. A scientist from The Scripps Research Institutes Florida campus has been awarded a pair of research grants from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) totaling just over $1.4 million to pursue drug discovery work in both Alzheimers disease and alcoholism. The grants have gone to Claes Wahlestedt, who is professor and director of Neuroscience Discovery at Scripps Florida. The first grant, which will fund the study of non-coding RNA modulators in Alzheimers disease, is for approximately $924,000 over two years; the other award, about $484,000 for one year, will be used to study and develop novel ligands for a specific receptor that plays a role in alcohol dependence. The studies are being funded through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, the economic stimulus package passed by the Congress in February. To date about 100 Scripps Research Institute investigators in California and Florida have won supplemental grants from the NIH under the Recovery and Reinvestment Act. ...

The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 established the Electronic Health Record (EHR) Incentive Program for Medicaid and Medicare providers. Beginning in 2011, eligible Medi-Cal professionals and hospitals will be able to receive incentive payments to assist in purchasing, installing, and using electronic health records in their practices.. The Office of Health Information Technology (OHIT) has been established in DHCS to develop goals and metrics for the program, establish policies and procedures, and to implement systems to disburse, track, and report the incentive payments. OHIT works closely with the Office of the Deputy Secretary for Health Information Technology in the California Health and Human Services Agency to coordinate the Medi-Cal EHR Incentive Program with wider health information exchange efforts throughout California and the nation.

I spent the last few minutes of my doctors visit in early 2013 in silence, as my doctor clumsily typed away notes about my progress. He apologized before he started typing, complaining that he was being forced to transition from paper-based notes to a new computer-based system with which he was unfamiliar. This moment was awkward, but it represented an important trend in healthcare delivery improvement.. Electronic Health Records in the U.S.. In 2015, 84% of primary care physicians in the United States used electronic health records (EHRs). The U.S. trails countries like Australia and the United Kingdom in this respect, where EHR penetration levels among primary care physicians were 92% and 98%, respectively.[1] This discrepancy represents both a performance gap for the United States and an opportunity for continued innovation. The quality benefits of shifting to EHRs are well known; as a result, EHRs have been promoted by the Obama administration and a number of prestigious hospital systems, ...
In order to qualify for federal incentive payments available under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA), health care providers (referred to as Eligible Professionals or EPs in the federal regulations) must meet Meaningful Use (MU) requirements for the use of electronic medical records. EPs can receive as much as $44,000 over a five-year period through Medicare, and as much as $63,750 over six years through Medicaid. Providers can choose to apply for whichever program they are eligible, but not for both.. Meaningful use stage 1 is the first phase of the incentive program, and all EPs must adopt an EMR that meets the required criteria by the end of 2014 in order to be eligible for government incentives. For providers to receive the maximum incentive, they must have achieved MU for at least 90 days by the end of the 2012 federal fiscal year (i.e., September 30, 2012). Stage 1 MU consists of 25 objectives and 41 quality measures. EPs must meet 20 of the 25 objectives, 3 core ...
Need an incentive to implement an electronic health records (EHR) system in your practice? How about $44,000? Thats the amount the federal government is making available to eligible physicians as part of its effort to speed up the adoption of health information technology throughout the U.S. In fact, under the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act (HITECH Act), part of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, billions of federal stimulus dollars are flowing to medical practices throughout the U.S. to help physicians set up EHR systems.. ...
In the 20th Century, those records were written by hand and paper copies were generally stored on or offsite, unless required for a hospitalization, doctor visit or research. Sharing patient information with even one consultant or payer typically meant long hours at the copying machine to create thick envelopes filled with data that could take a substantial amount of time to sort; sharing only pertinent information with multiple parties was next to impossible.. Computers and the internet heralded the information age and electronic health records (EHR), which allowed the mass sharing and analysis of data in an instant and without cumbersome and costly paper. In 2004, President George W. Bush created the Office of the National Coordinator (ONC), which now synchronizes HIT in the U.S. healthcare sector. Passed as part of the larger American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (HITECH) Act created incentives to use health care ...
The process by which the Recovery Act produced positive economic activity is straightforward. The bursting of the housing bubble inflicted a huge negative shock on spending in the U.S. economy. As household wealth evaporated due to plummeting real estate prices, both households and businesses radically cut back their demand for goods and services and demand for new construction dried up.. The Recovery Act helped offset this decline in private-sector demand by boosting public sector purchasing. Many kinds of spending outlays (or tax cuts) could have fulfilled this shock-absorbing function in the very short-run. And indeed, the Recovery Act was a portfolio of various spending increases and tax cuts (a portfolio much more heavily weighted toward tax cuts than most observers realized).. The spending increases in the Recovery Act were extraordinarily well-targeted to boost economic growth and create jobs. The package included aid to state governments to prevent layoffs and cuts in service, both of ...
One legislative effort in particular is driving pharmacies technical prowess. The Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (HITECH) Act, a provision of the 2009 American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, includes a meaningful use mandate that provides financial incentives for healthcare providers who deploy an electronic health record and can prove they are using the platform in a meaningful fashion, such as recording medications via computerized physician order entry and electronically prescribing permissible medications.. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, charged with administering the program, split meaningful use into three stages, each with its own time frame and measurable objectives. The industry is currently in Stage 1 and recently received the final requirements for Stage 2. Subsequent stages will include different objectives that providers must achieve in order to receive a second round of funding. With objectives built on accomplishments from the ...

Health care is indisputably one of the most data-intensive industries in the U.S., yet modern dissemination and control of patient data consistently lags behind other industries such as banking, airlines, insurance and retail.[IMGCAP(1)]The Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act within the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 attempts to rectify this, providing some $36 billion to promote the use of interoperable, certified health information technologies. The announcement last week by Vice President Joseph Biden and Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius announced that $1.2 billion in ARRA funding via two grant programs is an additional step in this direction. Historically, savings estimates from these moves have been the subject of wild speculation. Iron Mountain Inc., which provides information protection and storage services to one-third of the U.S. market (more than 2,000 hospitals in 43 states), takes a different view: Cost efficiencies ...
The report offers several policy recommendations to address these concerns, calling on Congress to modernize the Community Reinvestment Act to cover fintech lenders, and states to act quickly. The report outlines how states like California can enact state-level regulations, including requiring increased lending transparency through the Department of Financial Protection and Innovation, as well as passing a state version of the Community Reinvestment Act. In Illinois, the most recent state to pass a state-level CRA, advocates partnered with legislators to advance a racial equity slate that included these crucial regulations for nonbank lenders. State and federal regulations need a drastic overhaul to keep up with these trends and avoid another financial crisis caused by predatory mortgage lending, said Debra Gore-Mann, President and CEO of The Greenlining Institute. These institutions are targeting communities that have been historically denied access to financial products and services from ...

This mandate, along with The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA), drives CareOne and other healthcare organizations to upgrade their existing clinical ...
Consistent with the points we made throughout the drafting of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA), ITTA members strongly believe that the $7.2 billion in broadband stimulus money should be focused on unserved parts of our country. Building out broadband to the unserved will do more to create jobs and open up new economic opportunity than diverting money to other purposes. Making broadband available everywhere will also facilitate other ARRA objectives, such as intelligent transportation systems, electronic medical health records and smart-grid technology. Unless ARRA’s limited funds are focused on bridging the gap between the broadband haves and have nots, ARRA could actually widen today’s digital divide. ARRA is an excellent start to close existing broadband gaps, but it is vitally important to ensure that funding is utilized as efficiently as possible to extend broadband’s reach as far as possible. Thus, connecting the ...
The 2009 American Recovery and Reinvestment Act spurred adoption of electronic health records (EHRs) in the United States, through such measures as financial incentives to providers through Medicare and Medicaid and regional extension centers, which provide ongoing technical assistance to practices.

The Affordable Care Act is a once-in-a-generation change to the U.S. health system. It guarantees access to health care for all Americans, creates new incentives to change clinical practice to foster better coordination and quality, gives physicians more information to make them better clinicians and patients more information to make them more value-conscious consumers, and changes the payment system to reward value. The Act and the health information technology provisions in the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act remove many barriers to delivering high-quality care, such as unnecessary administrative complexity, inaccessible clinical data, and insufficient access to primary care and allied health providers.. We hope that physicians will embrace the opportunities created by the Affordable Care Act that will enable them to provide better care for their patients and lead the U.S. health system in a more positive direction. To fully realize the benefits of the Affordable Care Act for their ...
In May 2011 NBC received an $86,000 American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) grant through the Rhode Island Office of Energy Resources (RIOER) to coordinate and oversee the performance of the EETAs. As part of the grant award National Grid has agreed to fund 50% of the cost of each EETA. NBC, using the ARRA grant funds, will pay for the other half.. At the completion of the EETA process each WWTF will receive a Report which can be used to help implement identified Energy Efficiency Measures (EEMs). EEMs are defined as improvements to a WWTF, including equipment and physical operating control systems which produce economically feasible reductions in energy use. EEMs include cost effective co-generation and use of renewable energy resources.. Each report summarizes the EEMs studied including a cost to install the measure and the energy savings in kilowatt hours or therms saved along with detailed engineering calculations and assumptions, cost breakdowns, and formulas showing where energy ...
COBRA continuing coverage is usually paid for by the covered individual. That includes both their share and the employers share (i.e., the entire premium). People can pick and choose which coverages to keep and who to cover (themselves or dependents), which could vary the cost.. In response to the COVID-19 crisis, Congress is considering expanded COBRA options. A bill drafted by the House of Representatives proposes covering furloughed individuals in addition to those who were laid off. In its current form, the drafted legislation would also cover up to 100 percent of the premium. COBRA law currently allows up to 18 months of continuing coverage, and the proposed legislation could keep that time frame or adjust it. If approved, it would be significantly more than the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA). ARRA was passed during the 2009 recession and covered 65 percent of COBRA premiums for up to 15 months.. ...
The Center for Medicaid and State Operations of the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) has sent a letter to state Medicaid directors providing guidance on Section 4201 of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA), which established a payment program for providers that become meaningful users of EHRs.

Using a $325,000 National Institutes of Health grant supplement, administered by the federal stimulus act, Michaelis and her team are working hard to unlock the secrets of this disease that afflicts more than 50 children in 30 countries. Specifically, Michaelis is investigating the role that a protein known as lamin A plays in the disease.. Michaelis investigations are among the more than 300 stimulus-funded research grants and supplements totaling more than $157.4 million that Johns Hopkins has garnered since Congress passed the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (informally known by the acronym ARRA), bestowing the National Institutes of Health and the National Science Foundation with $12.4 billion in extra money to underwrite research grants by September 2010. The stimulus package-which provided $550 billion in new spending, including the above grants-is part of the federal governments attempt to bring back a stumbling economy by doling out dollars for transportation projects, ...
SHOREWOOD-(ENEWSPF)-June 10, 2011. The Illinois Housing Development Authority (IHDA) yesterday celebrated the opening of apartments that will help dozens of seniors live affordably in the Will County community. The 51 new apartments of Shorewood Horizon Senior Living Community will ensure seniors in the Village of Shorewood have access to safe, decent and affordable housing. Construction created an estimated 42 quality jobs.. IHDA, the states housing finance agency, financed $5.5 million in federal American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA), federal HOME funds and other federal and state resources on behalf of the administration of Governor Pat Quinn to build the development. Federal housing tax credits that IHDA provided generated an additional $6 million in private equity to build Shorewood Horizon, 820 W. Black Road, Shorewood. IHDA also provided state tax credits as a result of a donation from the Village of Shorewood in the form of reduced village impact fees.. On behalf of Governor ...
The change will be retroactive to January 1, 2012, so workers whose employers implement this program will be able to receive tax benefits for any passes they purchased through the program last year. Unfortunately, the benefit expires December 31, 2013. This isnt the first time that the transit commuter benefit will expire while the parking benefit remains. The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA 2009, also known as the stimulus) raised the transit commuter benefit from $120 to $230 per month, but that expired on December 31, 2011. The parking benefit remained at $230 per month..

U.S. Senators Charles E. Schumer and Kirsten Gillibrand today announced that the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) will provide a total of $4,180,862 million in funding through the National Institutes of Health (NIH) for biomedical research projects in Western New York. The Roswell Park Cancer Institute will receive $2,231,472 and The University at Buffalo will receive $1,949,390. The ARRA will provide a total of $64,826,308 for projects statewide, including $13,288,446 for those at institutions upstate.. This funding for biomedical research is a wise investment in the Western New York economy, said Schumer. Not only will these federal dollars help New York institutions tackle our biggest health issues, but we will be creating research and teaching positions in the region. I will continue to fight for funding to keep our states world-class schools and research facilities at the forefront of medicine.. It is critical that we invest in the life-saving research at our world class ...
This article takes a look at the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) of 2009, which resulted in some significant changes to privacy and security regulations which were outlined in the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) as well as the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (HITECH) Act.

This article takes a look at the provisions for entities that are not currently covered by HIPAA, as well as other miscellaneous changes made by the [...] ...

In signing the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act this week in Denver, President Barack Obama claimed that the law - which among other things will ramp up funding for renewable energy development - is laying the groundwork for new green energy economies that can create countless well-paying jobs.. This statement follows promises he made during his campaign for the presidency. Mr. Obama said, for example, that hed create as many as five million such jobs by investing over $150 billion over 10 years on wind, solar, biofuels and other renewable energy sources.. Hes also proposed a federal renewable portfolio standard that would require 25% of our electricity to come from clean sources - a mandate that would boost demand for windmills, solar farms, and other clean but expensive technologies (nuclear power, however, would be excluded). This transformed energy economy, Mr. Obama said at a campaign debate in Nashville, Tenn., last October, would be an engine of economic growth to rival the ...

PLEASE NOTE: Oregons CHIP is not part of Medicaid expansion so only Medicaid encounters are applicable to that portion of the calculation. However, the Oregon Health Plan (OHP) includes funding for both Medicaid and CHIP. Because providers cannot differentiate between the two funding streams, providers must reduce all OHP encounters by 4.4%. This is Oregons statewide rate of CHIP encounters (aka CHIP proxy). The CHIP proxy is calculated by taking the total OHP encounters for the selected 90-day period and mulitplying that number by .956 as shown below ...
Chapter 311: Tax increment financing (TIF) is a method local governments can use to pay for improvements that will draw private investment to an area. Tax increment financing isnt a new tax; instead, it redirects some of the ad valorem tax from a property in a geographic area designated as a Tax Increment Reinvestment Zone (TIRZ) to pay for improvements in the zone. Tax Code Chapter 311 governs tax increment financing. Only a city or county may initiate tax increment financing. Tax increment financing requires the governing body of a city to create a Tax Increment Reinvestment Zone (TIRZ). The governing body of a city by ordinance may: designate a contiguous or noncontiguous geographic area (a) within the corporate limits of a municipality; (b) in the extraterritorial jurisdiction of the municipality, or (c) in both to be a reinvestment zone. The designation of an area that is wholly or partly located in the extraterritorial jurisdiction of a municipality is not affected by a subsequent ...

The ongoing pandemic of COVID-19 continues to provide challenges for employers, customers and NDT certified individuals. As a standards developer, ASNT understands the importance of codes and standards to meet contractual requirements. As with most standards developers, their standards typically do not address actions to take during an unprecedented global pandemic. ASNT is no different.. For those involved in employer-based certification programs and in need of recertifying individuals or being recertified, the pandemic creates a challenge. How does an individual obtain re-certification during a lock down, where services are not available? These are the types of inquiries that ASNT is receiving related to SNT-TC-1A and ANSI/ASNT CP-189 employer-based certification programs. While ASNT cannot overrule customer / contractual requirements to indicate extending of employer-based certifications is acceptable, ASNT is positioned to provide guidance and recommendations for those responsible or ...

Another symptom of the disease. The Montana Reinvestment Act - funded directly by federal stimulus dollars - has provided almost $50,000 towards a project in Bozeman, Mont. to install new tennis courts in a city park.. Nothing new I know, just another completely unconstitutional project funding by the federal government.. Federal cash is supposed to be used to fund general welfare projects. Up until the FDR New Deal era, these general welfare projects needed to support everyone. As an example, a lighthouse at the entrance to the Chesapeake Bay may be a local project, but it was in support of the general (national) welfare since shipping vessels with cargo destined for Baltimore would be distributed throughout the United States..

Healthcare delivery now mandates shorter visits with higher documentation requirements, undermining the patient-provider interaction. Electronic health records (EHRs) have the potential to improve outcomes and quality of care in this pressured environment, and are endorsed by the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA) and Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (HITECH) Act as an important mechanism to support value-based healthcare. However, EHR systems were principally designed to support the transactional needs of administrators and billers, less so to nurture the relationship between patients and their providers. The purpose of this research is to identify ways to use EHRs to support clinical gastroenterologists and their patients while meeting the meaningful use requirements of the HITECH Act.. To improve clinic visit efficiency and meet criteria for meaningful use, investigators developed a patient-provider portal (P3) that systematically collects patient ...

In my continuing saga of researching imagings impact on Meaningful Use, I wanted input from those that might be directly affected by ARRA/Meaningful Use. I reached out to several state and private HIEs to get their perspective on imaging and the impact of ARRA/Meaningful Use.. Overall, I have to conclude that HIEs are not focused on imaging - except as it pertains to results. This may be a function of priorities, and it is hard to argue with a strategy that emphasizes formation of a platform that supports all results including lab, radiology, cardiology, etc. In the case of most imaging services, the report still represents the legal document, so imaging in support of the report seems to be the rule of thumb. Another key aspect of HIEs current efforts seems to be decision support. A prime example comes from Devore Culver, Executive Director of HealthInfoNet, a non-profit HIE in the State of Maine. As Culver explained, there is significant cost savings associated with being able to query a ...
