ARRA Report
The ARRA report, which is available in PCC’s Practice Management window, calculates Medicaid plan utilization at your practice. You can use it to see the percentage of patient visits that are medicaid or medicaid eligible, broken out by physician. This report was designed to help your office determine if you qualified for the EHR Medicaid Incentive Program, but it may serve other purposes.
Follow the steps below to run the ARRA report.
