If you’re still unsure about the requirements and guidelines for 2018, don’t panic—Medisolv has your back. This week, we’re offering a free download of our 2018 eCQM reporting checklist.

Let’s start with a refresher on the 2018 eCQM requirements for the IQR program:

  2. Hospitals must report on eCQMs for one quarter of 2018.
  3. Submission must be completed by February 28, 2019.
  4. The files your hospital submits for your 2018 data are required to use EHR technology certified to the 2014 or 2015 edition of CEHRT.
  5. Data from that period must be submitted in a QRDA I file format.
