Rohit and I discuss the newly-finalized meaningful use regulations, the importance of interoperability, and linkages with health information exchange and various ONC programs.
July 20, 2010Podcast interview with Rohit Nayak of Quest Diagnostics
Care360 started as a Quest Diagnostics platform to allow small physician offices to receive lab test results electronically. Over time it has developed into a full-fledged EHR that can be used to help physicians meet Meaningful Use requirements and qualify for incentive payments from the Federal government. In this podcast interview, Rohit Nayak, Vice President of Sales for Quest’s MedPlus subsidiary, discusses how physicians are using Care360 to transition incrementally from paper to digital records.
A gradual approach like this one is really the only way to make the transition to EMRs.
Nice to have an update since Meaningful Use has been defined. I spoke with Rohit last year with a text written interview focusing on the Quest offerings.
