I wanted to share some system notices from CMS. These would affect any users who are trying to submit for Meaningful Use.
*Stage 2 Flexibility - Certified eHR technology or CEHRT Flexibility Options - available mid October 2014
Allow Providers to: Use 2011 or 2014 Edition CEHRT or a combination, Attest in 2014 to either Stage 1 or 2 meaningful use measures, Report either 2013 or 2014 Clinical Quality measures (CQMs)
*Planned System Maintenance - The HITECH eHR Incentive program system will be unavailable due to planned system maintenance from October 4, 2014 at 7:00 AM ET to October 6, 2014 at 7:00 AM ET. Eligible Professionals and Eligible Hospitals will be unable to register or attest for the eHR Incentive Program during this time. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
In short, the attestation system will be down from the 4th through the 6th. Also, if you plan to attest for stage 1 using Amazing Charts Version 6 (under the 2011 certification, then you will need to wait till mid-October before trying to attest.
Thanks
