EPs - 6 years (not necessarily consecutive)

Year 1 (Regardless of year of filing) - Eligible professionals qualify by adopting, implementing, or upgrading to certified EHR technology; EHR technology must be tested and certified by the Office of the National Coordinator (ONC) Authorized Testing and Certification Body (ATCB)

Year 2 (Regardless of year of filing) – Eligible professionals qualify by meeting 90 days of Meaningful Use and attesting to MU

Information Needed for Year 2

The Provider/Group information will pre-populate if the EP is filing for 90 days MU in Year 2.

Information on the EHR system will only need to be re-entered if there is some change in the system (i.e., different vendor; new version).

Information that needs to be entered each year is information relating to Patient Volume.

Information relating to the Meaningful Use attestation will need to be filed separately each year.

Meaningful Use Attestation

Every provider that has received A/I/U will need to meet 90 days of MU before receiving the next incentive payment ($8,500) for Year 2.

MU measures include 15 Core measures and 5 of 10 Menu measures for each provider. Most measures should be recorded by the EHR system in use.

Core measures include such items as e-prescribing, recording patient demographics, recording vital signs, performing a security check, recording Clinical Quality Measures (CQM) among others.

Public Health Reporting

All Eligible Professionals (EPs) and Eligible Hospitals (EHs) are required to meet one MU measure related to public health reporting.

For FQHC EPs, this reporting would be immunization reporting to the Ohio Department of Health’s Impact SIIS program (Menu Measure 9).

If your providers are not already reporting to Impact SIIS, ODH/Medicaid are establishing the parameters for PH reporting, to be announced this month.
