NJ-HITEC selects ITelagen for state EHR assistance

The New Jersey Health IT Extension Center (NJ-HITEC) selected EHR software provider ITelagen to assist New Jersey physicians, on behalf of NJ-HITEC, to achieve meaningful use of EHRs.

Organized by the Office of the National Coordinator for Health IT, NJ-HITEC has been established to provide technical assistance, guidance, resources and information to accelerate provider adoption and support the meaningful use of EHRs.

The Jersey City, N.J.-based ITelagen, under a partnership with the NJ-HITEC, will work with the NJ-HITEC to assist an estimated 5,000 New Jersey primary care physicians in their use of EHRs and to meet meaningful use standards within the next two years.
