The approved vendor list for electronic health records (EHR) in North Carolina should be completed by November and released shortly thereafter. The update came during a conference call on Tuesday with the NC Regional Extension Center and other partners involved in health information technology (HIT) project. NCMS is actively involved in HIT development in North Carolina and will provide updates at https://www.compassionatecarenc.org/ and in the Bulletin.
