Proposed Project: Regional Extension 

Center (REC) Cooperative Agreement 

Program OMB No. 0990–NEW–Office of 

the National Coordinator for Health 

Information Technology 

Abstract: The REC Cooperative 

Agreement program has been targeted as 

the Department of Health and Human 

Services’ (HHS) high priority programs 

and is supportive of HHS Strategic Goal 

1: Health Care, objective 1.3: Improve 

health care quality, safety, cost, and 

value. Each Regional Center is required 

to plan and implement the outreach, 

education and technical assistance 

necessary to meet the objective of 

assisting providers in its geographic 

service area to achieve meaningful use 

of electronic health records (EHR). Each 

Center is required to report data on a 

monthly basis, throughout the 24-month 

duration of the first project period, 

including the number of providers 

registered via signed agreements with 

the REC, the number of providers who 

have purchased and are using an ONCcertified HER, with e-prescribing and 

quality reporting functionalities, and the 

number of providers who have become 

meaningful users of EHR, in a 

certification process determined by the 

Center for Medicaid and Medicare 

Services (CMS). The tool provides a data 

hub and central location for program 

participants to collect this data. 

Additionally it allows for the synergy of 

grantee business processes and 

technology to increase transparency, 

portability, and accuracy of ONCmonthly and ARRA-quarterly reporting 

requirements.
