Health Care Industry Funding

At Denison and Associates we can help those in the health care industry to apply for some of the billions of dollars set aside in the ARRA's Health Information Technology grant and incentive funds. The funds are part of the $2 billion allotted to HHS’s Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act to expand healthcare services to low-income and uninsured individuals.
The $27.8 million will be used to expand and upgrade health IT systems, including electronic health records, and are related to other ARRA efforts to promote the adoption and use of health IT throughout healthcare.


Stimulus and Recovery Funding

Denison and Associates can also assist with obtaining grants and funds from the Stimulus Recovery Act. The $787 billion economic stimulus package was designed to provide a needed boost to the economy. The package includes many provisions which are particularly important to health care, affordable housing, business, and community development industries.
