Approximately 100 physicians will receive a free 26-month license to the software, which typically carries a $399-per-month fee for each physician, according to the report.
Physicians will be selected from 10 metropolitan areas with the largest impoverished populations: Detroit, Cleveland, Buffalo, New York City, Milwaukee, St. Louis, Miami, Cincinnati, Philadelphia and Newark, N.J.
To qualify for the software, physician practices must be either primary care, internal medicine, family practice, gynecology, or pediatric practitioners; be in private practice; work in a practice with one to 10 physicians; have a demonstrated history of providing unreimbursed care to the low-income community for six months or more; and have broadband or high-speed Internet in the location where the physician expects to use the software.
