Abstract
For the KHIE Incentive Programs, Kentucky Regional Extension Center will provide the following:
1. Provider Assistance Program:
Kentucky REC will provide Pharmacies, Eligible Providers (EPs), Eligible Hospitals (EHs) and Critical Access
Hospitals (CAHs) the opportunity to apply for an incentive to offset the vendor fees associated with connecting
to KHIE. Potential awardees are required to submit a Provider Assistance Program Application to the Kentucky
REC. Applications will be accepted through June 30, 2021. If approved, EHs and CAHs may be awarded up to
$15,000 and Pharmacies and Eps may be awarded up to $8,000. Incentives will be awarded on a first come
first serve basis until all funds are depleted. Incomplete applications will not be considered, and only one
incentive will be awarded per business entity.
2. Electronic Laboratory Reporting Incentive Program:
In collaboration with DPH, KHIE is offering eligible healthcare facilities the opportunity to apply for an incentive
to offset the vendor fees associated with improving or establishing an Electronic Laboratory Reporting (ELR)
interface to the KHIE. The ELR Incentive Program was created to help labs, including labs within hospitals and
healthcare facilities, mitigate the challenges associated with establishing or upgrading an ELR HL7 interface
with KHIE. The objective is to reduce the financial burden to help improve Public Health reporting and the
secure exchange of patient health information.
