                               EHR Incentive Attestation Deadline 

 

 

August 25, 2011

 

 

Dear Client,  

 

If you plan to attest for the EHR Incentive program for the calendar year of 2011, the deadline is approaching fast! You must be using Patient Chart Manager according to CMS' Meaningful Use guidelines starting October 3rd. If you are planning to attest for your first payment in the 2012 calendar year this deadline does not apply to you.

 

In order to assist our clients as much as possible through this process, Prime Clinical Systems is providing the following resources to you.

 

1. CMS Links:  

The following CMS links contain additional information regarding attestation for Meaningful Use.
Note: These links can also be found on our web site by clicking

2. PCM Meaningful Use Report and PowerPoint

 Meaningful Use Report. This report will help you to see which objectives your office is meeting and which you are not. The report is accessed through PCM by selecting Misc. Options > Data Maint. > Data Maintenance 'Meaningful Use Report'.
Note: The PCM MU report will list only the measures which need calculations, though all Core Measures and 5 of the 10 Menu Set Measures must be met. For example, Core Measures 10, 11, 14, and 15 will not be listed as they have no calculation in the Meaningful Use Report but they must be met. Please refer to the General Information & Programs CMS Link above for further information.

 PowerPoint. To view PowerPoint training information, click here and then select Phase 4: Additional Features > Meaningful Use.
Alternately, the PowerPoint presentation may also be accessed by logging on through the PCS website

3. Video Tutorials:  

Recorded training sessions will direct your staff through the different required data elements and reporting necessary for each individual objective. To view the videos, click here, or log on through the PCS website www.primeclinical.com and then select the Meaningful Use Training Materials option. Be sure to watch the videos in the the Meaningful Use Module Overview option before viewing the Core Measure and Menu Measure videos.
