The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) (@CMSGov) Electronic Health Record (EHR) Incentive Program attestation for Medicare eligible hospitals and critical access hospitals (CAHs) has transitioned to a new platform. As of January 2, 2018, eligible hospitals and CAHs attesting to CMS for the EHR Incentive Program must submit their Calendar Year (CY) 2017 attestations through the QualityNet Secure Portal (QNet). Eligible hospitals and CAHs attesting to CMS must have an active and updated QNet account before submitting EHR Incentive Program attestations.
CMS is hosting a live demonstration webinar on Thursday, January 18, 2018, to walk through the registration, attestation, and objectives and measures submission process on QNet for the Medicare Hospital EHR Incentive Program. CMS will also provide an overview of the transition.
