Primary Care Information Project

The Primary Care Information Project (PCIP) seeks to improve population health through health information technology and data exchange. The program supports the adoption and use of Electronic Health Records (EHRs) among primary care providers in New York City's underserved communities through a wide-range of services.

With PCIP, you can : 

  • Reach Meaningful Use by learning how to adopt and implement at EHR at NYC REACH 
  • Receive Quality Improvement Support on using and customizing your EHR and processing billing. We also have training classes.
  • Learn about Privacy and Security guidelines to keep patient records safe and protected  
  • Participate in Health Information Exchange which allows you to exchange clinical information from your EHR with other health care stakeholders (e.g. physicians, hospitals, labs, home health care agencies).
  • Participate in a variety of patient education, pay-for performance, and certification programs:
  • Join On the Record to participate in online discussions with other providers and the PCIP staff.

PCIP was recently recognized for the HIMSS Davies Award for Excellence in the implementation and use of health information technology. Read more about it here.
