    NY Medicaid EHR Incentive Program Requirements

    January 7, 2019

    The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services announced minor changes to reporting requirements and confirmed that eligible providers (EPs) must participate in Stage 3 and use 2015 Edition Certified EHR Technology (CEHRT).

    Stage 3 Participation

    • Starting in performance year (PY) 2019, EPs can no longer participate in Modified Stage 2.
    • EPs must use 2015 Edition CEHRT in order to meet Stage 3 requirements.
    • Objective 6: Coordination of Care through Patient Engagement
      • Thresholds for measure 1 (view, download, and transmit information) and measure 2 (secure electronic messaging) will remain at 5% for PY 2019 and subsequent years.
      • Thresholds will not increase to 10% and 25%.

    Clinical Quality Measure (CQM) Requirements

    • EPs will still need to report on 6 CQMs relevant to their scope of practice. However, at least oneof the 6 CQMs must be an outcome or high-priority measure.
    • The reporting period will still be a full year. Exception: EPs attesting to MU for the first time can report on a 90 day period.
