Important Win with Recent Behavioral Health IT Legislation

 

Our Behavioral Health partners have new opportunities to adopt technology that is critically important to advance population health. Thanks to our partners at the National Council for Behavioral Health's work over the last nine years, bipartisan legislation passed that incentivizes behavioral health providers to adopt electronic health records (EHRs). This is a huge win for LPHI and BCM's Financial Sustainability Fellowship. For years, many of our partners have struggled to implement EHRs because of the significant costs. Now, they may be incentivized to do so.
