Primary care providers may not have the technical expertise available to achieve Meaningful Use, but Regional Extension Centers and their corresponding Service Partners can help.

What is CalHIPSO?

The California Health Information Partnership and Services Organization (CalHIPSO) is one of three Regional Extension Centers (RECs) established within the State of California to offer services and build resources in an efficient, economical, scalable, and sustainable manner. CalHIPSO contracts with Service Partners that assist providers with the adoption of electronic health records (EHRs).

What are Regional Extension Centers?

The HITECH Act establishes programs to accelerate the adoption and use of electronic health records.
