Sustaining "meaningful use" of health information technology in low-resource practices.
The objective of this paper was to identify potential barriers to maintenance of meaningful use of EHRs in priority primary care practices using a qualitative observational study for federally qualified health centers and priority practices in Michigan. The authors concluded that priority practices, especially in rural areas, are at high risk for falling on the wrong side of a digital divide as payers and regulators enact increasing expectations for EHR use and information management.
