Home Forums Discussions Meaningful Use When will AC be updated for the new 2015 EP MU standards

When will Amazing Charts be updated to the new 2015 Eligible Provider Meaningful Use standards? We are on hosted version 8.2.4 build 123.

Will they update the wizard or do we just attest to the most recent requirements. They have actually changed the requirements now to just 10 core requirements if I'm reading it right. We went to the FCC web site and found that we can claim an exemption on parts we actually pass because our broadband coverage is much less than 50% of households.

I was told last week they won't be changing anything in AC for attesting, you will only fill in the data for the new requirements.

I got an answer to my email. We need to be using a 2014 certified emr, which we are. The core requirements are essentially the same but are now reduced to 10. Here is the link I was sent by John Erickson at ac. I found it helpful.

https://www.cms.gov/Regulations-and...ms/Downloads/Stage3Overview2015_2017.pdf

I think when we log in for attestation it will be a combination of numerators and denominators and questions...like secure messaging just being yes or no

I hope the link works

bump. year end and i can't find any info on the 2015 MU for Amazing charts. We can all read the CMS notice. But would be normal business to have some word of update or heads-up from AC no?

Generally less onerous, and without a bit of direction we almost did work more than required here at the end of the year. Note the certain requirements have been removed for 2015 that are still on the 8.2.4 version.

Emailed AC no change needed. old report works fine. just delete some measures:

Once you have a printed form of the report, you can take a marker and black out the following measures.

Would take too much programming to revise the report. I agree rather they spend the effort on real improvements not MU last minute changes.

run 90 day report as usual then cross out:
