“The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services recently awarded more than $9 million in American Recovery and Reinvestment Act funding to the Kansas Health Information Exchange Project to help improve the exchange of health records at the state level.
The project is designed to help achieve a national goal of every American having an electronic health record by 2014.
“This announcement is great news for Kansas as it will bring countless opportunities in terms of creating jobs, advancing technology and reducing our overall health care costs,” Gov. Mark Parkinson said.”
