CMS has developed attestation worksheets to help providers successfully attest to meeting meaningful use through the CMS web-based attestation system.
These attestation worksheets allow eligible professionals (EPs), eligible hospitals, and critical access hospitals (CAHs) to log additional data for core and menu measures that might not be obtained only through their certified electronic health record (EHR) system. In order to provide complete and accurate information for certain of these measures, EPs and hospitals may have to include information from paper-based patient records or from other areas. (Please note that clinical quality measures must be reported directly from certified EHR technology).
You can fill out the attestation worksheets electronically or manually, and then keep the worksheet on hand as you attest so your data is easily accessible.
You can find the worksheets by clicking the links below. Make sure to use the worksheet that pertains to you:
