Many State Medicaid Meaningful Use Attestations Delayed

For Medicare providers, the deadline to attest for the 2015 reporting period with CMS was March 11, 2016. However, due to recent revised requirements, many states have not yet established a 2016 deadline for providers to attest for the 2015 reporting period with their Medicaid EHR Incentive Program. If fact, many states are only accepting 2015 reporting period attestations for adopt, implement, or upgrade (AIU), and Meaningful use Modified Stage 2 attestations are not yet available.

If you are a Medicaid provider, visit your State Medicaid EHR Incentive web site and subscribe to their Listservs to be kept informed if attestations or deadlines have been or will be set.
