2015 MU Attestation Deadline Approaching

If you are an eligible professional participating in the Medicare EHR Incentive Program, you have until 11:59 p.m. ET on February 29, 2016 to attest Meaningful Use for 2015 EHR reporting period. 

If you are participating in the Medicaid EHR Incentive Program, please refer to your state's website for attestation information.

If you are a Medicaid participant who is subject to Medicare penalties and you’re attesting for the first time in 2015, you can demonstrate Meaningful Use on the Medicare attestation portal by February 29th to avoid penalties in 2016 and 2017. You will still need to submit a Medicaid attestation with your state to earn incentives. If you are a returning Medicaid MU participant who is eligible for Medicare penalties but unable to meet the 30% patient volume threshold, then also you can demonstrate Meaningful Use on the Medicare attestation portal by February 29th to avoid 2017 penalties.
