EP - does it mean Enlisted Personnel?

I’m sure that many EP’s feel like they are enlisted personnel, but in fact it stands for Eligible Provider. This is a person who can collect money for meeting certain benchmarks in using their electronic medical record. It applies only in the USA. Many features have been added to OpenEMR so that EP’s can use the software to earn their “meaningful use” money. Some features are very useful for delivering quality patient care, others are not. The advantage in practicing outside of the United States is that one may use only the features that they believe will enhance the care of the patient.
