I am extremely disappointed that 2 years after the passage of Cures we still do not have the regulations necessary to implement these provisions.
The Cures Act aimed to build on the progress of the HITECH Act of 2009, but by focusing on improving interoperability, patient access to their health records, and reducing provider burden.
