Specifications include, but are not limited to: The State of Delaware Department of Health and Social Services, Delaware Health Care Commission invites Delaware-based Behavioral and Mental Health (B/MH) providers to submit application proposals for financial incentives to: 1) purchase a new Electronic Medical Records (EMR); or 2) Upgrade or enhance an existing EMR for integration with Primary Care Provider (PCP) sites. Delaware developed and adopted a consensus paper describing the approach, vision, strategies, support, performance, evaluation and timeline for B/MH providers to integrate with Primary Care Providers (PCP) in the healthcare transformation process. As a preliminary step towards this reform, the DHCC is providing monetary incentives to B/MH provider sites to bolster the overall cost of EMR adoption for the practice or upgrading and/or enhancing an existing EMR for integration with other PCP sites in Delaware. All EMR systems affiliated with- or purchased as a result of- this RFP EMR Incentive Program must have interoperable capabilities with the DHIN system.
