CMS is implementing a new rule that goes into effect this Spring that will reduce the attesting period from 365 days to 90 days. According to Patrick Conway, M.D., deputy administrator and chief medical officer for CMS, this new rule would update the Medicare and Medicaid EHR incentive programs and whittle the attesting reporting period down to 90 days from the previous 365 days.
By lowering the bar, CMS has given these non-productive, non-functioning EHR companies a lifeline. Let the market dictate the future of EHR technology. By lowering the bar for non-productive EHR technology the market allows these EHR companies to continue in business. Having doctors attest for a year would separate the productive EHR systems from the non-productive EHR systems and inspire doctors to invest in a productive EHR. MD Logic, the leading U.S. provider of High Performance Electronic Health Records Solutions, offers the most productive EHR systems in healthcare.
