Program Information:
In New Mexico the eligible professionals include physicians, dentists, certified nurse-midwives, nurse practitioners, and physician assistants practicing in a certified institution. For purposes of the Medicaid EHR Incentive Program Medicaid must also meet the other criteria for Medicaid incentive payment eligibility, such as the patient volume thresholds or practicing predominantly in a Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC) or Rural Health Clinic (RHC). Additionally, to qualify for incentives, most Medicaid practices cannot be “hospital-based.” Eligible professionals can receive a maximum amount of $63,750 over six years for adopting and meaningfully using EHR technology.
