Registration for the Medicare and Medicaid EHR Incentive Program opens on January 3, 2011. CMS is encouraging Eligible Providers/Clinics and Hospitals to register as soon as possible even if an EHR has not yet been implemented. CMS’ Registration and Attestation page also lists other requirements for incentive payments for both eligible providers/clinics and hospitals.

As a Regional Extension Center (REC) contractor, CRHC will continue to assist participating hospitals and clinics with information and assistance on how to attest and qualify for incentive payments. If you have any questions, feel free to contact Tracy McDonald at tm@coruralhealth.org.
