CMS person you spoke to is referring to reporting directly with EHR reporting. This is a new and not very commonly used method.
We received PQRS money for the past 2 years, our last check about a month ago, and never needed EHR reporting. As I said above, it is true that PQRS reporting can't be done directly with AC using the EHR-based method -- only a handful of EHRs can do this. But you can qualify for PQRS in the most common way, by adding the appropriate "G-code" to each Medicare encounter claim.
