Only 6 Weeks Left!
We’re committed to supporting your preparation for the 2019 CMS (Medicare and Medicaid) quality payment programs.
For those reporting on the Promoting Interoperability performance category, you must be on 2015 Certified Electronic Health Record Technology (CEHRT) before starting your 2019 90-day performance period. With only six weeks remaining, it’s important to start now. Please know that it can take multiple weeks to implement some of these 2015 CEHRT solutions.
Below is the complete 2015 CEHRT solution set:
✓ Centricity™ EMR 9.12 or Centricity Practice Solution 12.3
✓ Centricity Integration with Azure, our Azure Active Directory (AAD) solution
✓ CCDA 2.1
✓ Patient Portal and Secure Messaging
✓ Centricity Patient API
✓ ePrescribing 4.2.2 or higher
✓ Other: Syndromic, Immunization, and CCDA interfaces
If you need help enabling these solutions, please attend our 2015 CEHRT Office Hours webinars. These are interactive events where we focus on answering any questions you have. Please consider inviting the IT staff responsible for implementing your 2015 CEHRT solutions.

Where do I find resources on enabling 2015 CEHRT?
For support resources, log in to the Customer Portal, select the Community tab and your product, followed by the Upgrade Resources button. From there, click on the link to 2015 Edition CEHRT or other pages such as Technical Planning or Education.
What’s new?
We know that many of you are enabling our Patient API integration, the final step of the 2015 CEHRT readiness program. Once our Patient API integration (B2C Script) is implemented, the final steps are determining whether to contract with an API vendor and how to provide instructions to patients. To provide additional guidance on this matter, we held a Patient API webinar on August 6. You can access it on-demand here.
You can also view our What’s New section from our Upgrade Resources page on the Customer Portal. This section will summarize what we’ve added or changed each month.
How do I confirm we’ve completed our 2015 CEHRT readiness steps?
Review this post-install checklist which walks through the steps for verifying your configuration.
Lastly, please take a few minutes to complete this survey to help us understand your 2015 CEHRT status and provide you with the resources you need. If you’ve taken the survey before and have updates or completed enabling all of the 2015 CEHRT solutions, we’d appreciate you taking the survey again to share that information.
