The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, included in the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (HITECH) Act, earmarked nearly $19 billion for healthcare IT spending, specifically electronic health records (EHR).And while many physicians have one or more EHR components in either the planning or implementLation phase, over 90 percent of all physicians in the United States still lack a complete EHR system.
