HHS Launching Initiative to Track Physician Use and Burdens of Health IT ONC Awards Cooperative Agreement to American Board of Family Medicine

The HHS’ Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ONC) awarded a cooperative agreement to the American Board of Family Medicine (ABFM) to measure the use and potential burdens experienced by office-based physicians. The results of the effort will provide ONC with national-level data on how office-based physicians use health IT, including key measures on interoperability and burden.
