Abstract
These issue briefs explore how local context affects HITECH program implementation as well as providers' incentives and ability to achieve Meaningful Use. These briefs identify the influence that state governments and policies, local grantees charged with implementing particular HITECH programs, health care market and community characteristics, and current health care reform efforts are having on providers' incentives and ability to meaningfully use EHRs and qualify for Medicare and Medicaid incentive payments.
