Description

Featuring AMA President Steven J. Stack, MD, This event is being held for physicians who have concerns about EHRs and in particular, the implications of Stage 3 Meaningful Use (MU) regulations.


The Meaningful Use program is not working, but bureaucrats in Washington, DC still want to move forward with Stage 3. That could mean less time with patients, less practice innovation and costly penalties if physicians do not comply. Currently, physician participation in MU Stage 2 sits at less than 10% compared to 80% adoption of EHRs. Join the AMA and WSMA for a conversation with national and local physician leaders about EHRs, the potential consequences of MU Stage 3, and what physicians can do to combat this regulatory mess.
