Any new on the release of 6.0 and the PMR.
It is the end of January and we should have heard by now.

I need the Meaningful use cash. If I can get a hold of the alpha 6.0, I am even willing to use that so I can start counting 90 days.

I see that they said it is certified, but find no reference as to where you can get it. Unfortunately even if you register I do not see where the government is going to let you get a check until late next year. It would be great to get the 90 days rolling.

I'd like to know also. I haven't moved up to ver. 5.16 yet because if ver. 6 comes out soon, I was hoping to avoid reinstalling on multiple computers.
Is 5.16 still considered a "beta" version? When my 5.029 install of AC does its weekly version check, it still receives the "You have the latest version of Amazing Charts".

I have 5.1.5 and it says beta and then directs you to 5.1.6 as a "beta version".

It still doesn't look like V6 is available for download. Isn't there generally a period of time where the program is available to a select group for beta testing, even before general release of the beta?
Is anyone doing beta testing of V6? Come on...you know who you are!!!

I do not see where the government is going to let you get a check until late next year. Not that I believe CMS. But their timeline says the first incentive payments will be started in May 2011 (presumably for the Jan-March 3 month attestation period).

There has been a spate of press releases about "first docs to get MU checks" recently. If they are getting money now, I can't imagine that it is for work done in 2009. So they are getting paid for 2010- for some portion of the year perhaps? Does that mean the money flows more quickly than you mention above? Any ideas?

I don't think anyone is beta testing 6.0 - believe they are still finishing in house testing.

Bumped up to keep it alive.
It's February 6, 2011.
What's going on with 6.0 and PMR.
I thought there was going to be a newsletter to help keep us informed.

Frank,
I have heard from the source that the delay in the PM is because Jon is not yet satisfied with it. It has not been forgotten. Patience, patience, my pretties.
