What is ARRA?
The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) is a far-reaching effort to jumpstart the nation’s economy, create or save millions of jobs, and address long-neglected economic challenges. President Obama signed the ARRA law into effect on February 19, 2009. The portion of the Act that delineates funding for health information technology is referred to as HITECH (Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health).
