How will I attest for the Medicare and Medicaid EHR Incentive Programs?

  • MU-EP-Stage 1-Attestation

EPs will have to demonstrate Meaningful Use through the CMS Medicare and Medicaid EHR Incentive Program Registration and Attestation System. In the Registration and Attestation System, providers will fill in numerators and denominators for the Meaningful Use objectives, indicate if they qualify for exclusions to specific objectives, and legally attest that they have successfully demonstrated Meaningful Use. Once providers have completed a successful online submission through the Attestation System, they will qualify for a Medicare EHR incentive payment. Starting no later than 2014, there will also be a batch file upload option. For the Medicaid EHR Incentive Program, providers will follow a similar process using their State's Attestation System. Sites eligible for Medicaid EHR incentives should contact their state for additional information.
