The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) is giving Medicare-eligible professionals a few extra weeks to attest to meaningful use for the Medicare Electronic Health Record (EHR) Incentive Program 2014 reporting year.
The new deadline is March 20th at 11:59 pm, pushed back from February 28th. The extra time, CMS wrote in a brief release, will also allow eligible professionals who have not already used their one “switch”, to switch programs (from Medicare to Medicaid, or vice versa) for the 2014 payment year a few more weeks to do so.
