Prepare for Attestation for the EHR Incentive Programs

Review the 2016 Medicare EHR Incentive Program Requirements

In 2016, the EHR reporting period is a minimum of any continuous 90 days between January 1, 2016 and December 31, 2016. There is also a 90-day reporting period for CQMs for providers that choose to report CQMs by attestation.

The EHR Incentive Programs attestation system will be open from January 3, 2017 to February 28, 2017. Providers must attest by the attestation deadline to avoid a 2018 payment adjustment.

In preparation for attestation, CMS encourages providers to review the 2016 program requirements webpage on the EHR Incentive Programs website.
