We all know this stuff is crap. I have a patient whose mom is white and dad is black. Is that kid categorized as white or black? I have no clue. It's stupid.

I did MU this year. The handouts and patient print outs are just stupid. So use an EMR so you can be paperless, but then use $10,000 worth of toner/paper to print it all out for the patient who quickly throws it in the trash. We just ask the patient if the want a printed copy, an emailed copy, or no copy. Most want nothing. They just want to be taken care of. What a concept.

Anyway, when I attested for MU, the didn't even ask for my reports from AC. AC does a pretty decent job of having that data for you to plug into the online attestation though. It took me less than an hour one day to do it all.
