This training on Medicare and Medicaid compliance will teach attendees best practices to conduct a self-audit for Meaningful Use Attestation submitted annually for incentive compensation. Participants will learn how to prepare and conduct an audit to ensure compliance with the EHR attestation process and required documentation protocols.
A best practice to ensure this compliance is for the provider to conduct an internal audit of its Meaningful Use Attestation. This audit should be conducted each year that the attestation is submitted to CMS.
Attend this 90-minute webinar to learn how to properly conduct this audit, what documentation is required to support your attestation, and how to strengthen your process so that it may hold up under the scrutiny of an audit from CMS.
