The EHR Incentive Program provides incentive payments for certain healthcare providers to use EHR technology in ways that can positively impact patient care. What is an EHR?Providers have to meet specific requirements in order to receive incentive payments.

Managed care A document signed by a physician, stating that he/she performed the diagnostic or therapeutic procedure on a Pt for which a bill is being submitted.

For medical review purposes, Medicare requires that services provided and/or ordered be authenticated by the author. An attestation statement may be submitted to authenticate an illegible or missing signature on medical documentation.

The Stage 1 criteria for meaningful use focus on electronically capturing health information in a coded format, using that information to track key clinical conditions, communicating that information for care coordination purposes, and initiating the reporting of clinical quality measures and public health information.

CMS Interoperability and Patient Access Final Rule The Interoperability and Patient Access final rule (CMS-9115-F) put patients first by giving them access to their health information when they need it most, and in a way they can best use it.

Promoting Interoperability simply means that providers need to show they're using certified Electronic Health Record (EHR) technology in ways that can be measured against quality standards. These standards allow eligible providers (EPs) to earn incentive payments by meeting specific criteria.

Attestation is the part of the process to secure CMS EHR Incentive Program reimbursements that requires providers to prove (attest to) that they are meaningfully using a certified EMR.Attestation occurs through the CMS EHR Incentive Program website.
