Hodja.....maybe your doc forgot to apply for the subsidy or just doesn't want you to know he accepted government welfare. Ask him if the government reimbursed him any of the $165,000 and let us know.

"In 2009 as part of the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (HITECH) Act, the federal government set aside $27 billion for an incentive program that encourages hospitals and providers to adopt electronic health records systems (EHR). Billions more were allocated to help train health information technology (HIT) workers and assist hospitals and providers in setting up EHRs that would enable the health data historically sequestered in paper files to be shared among providers and used to improve health care quality."
