Welcome to the RI Regional Extension Center!

This one-hour orientation session is for providers and practice administrators who have recently enrolled in the REC Program. The information presented will be referenced often as you proceed through your EHR evaluation and implementation processes with the goal of achieving Meaningful Use at your practice.
