Research

As available research dollars continue to diminish, grant applications need to be that much stronger. In our highly interconnected world, you have the option to append collaborators to your programs to strengthen proposals and increase the likelihood of being funded.

Programs

Telemedicine programs often start out as grass-roots efforts. The specific applications differ but the concept is the same. The decision to implement a program such as tele-pathology is driven by financial issues and vision. There is much to consider.

HIPAA Security

The Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (HITECH) Act has tightened HIPAA security laws requiring a higher degree of data monitoring. Certain breaches of ePHI require notification to the federal government and a major media outlet.


Information technology is set to make major impact on the healthcare industry: Healthcare has largely avoided the information technology revolution, but it won't for much longer, according to a report in the Wall Street Journal.

The U.S. Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Management (CMS) just released its final rule under the annual physician fee schedule policies. The agency announced that it will start reimbursing approved telehealth services for skilled nursing facilities starting in 2009.
