This past month, CMS published several new Frequently Asked Questions  (FAQs) on its website addressing questions about the EHR incentive programs, and in particular how to attest to certain measures for health information exchange, patient electronic access, and other objectives that require patient action.  Those FAQs can be found here on the CMS website.

CMS also published the final regulations with a comment period for participation in Stage 3 of the EHR incentive program.  The public may submit comments on the regulations until December 15, 2015.  The regulations can be viewed here in the Federal Register.
