Developers and Vendors

CMS EHR Incentive Payments

The Centers Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) EHR Incentive Programs provide incentive payments to Eligible Professionals (EPs) and Eligible Hospitals (EHs) as they adopt CEHRT to implement or demonstrate MU. For information on registration and attestation, visit the CMS EHR Incentive Programs.

CMS EHR Certification Identification Number

Part of the attestation process for EPs and EHs is sharing the CMS EHR Certification Identification Number (CMS EHR Certification ID) with CMS. This number is generated from the CHPL once the EP or EH selects a certified complete EHR or compiles modular EHRs together to create a complete EHR product suite, as indicated in the CHPL cart, explained in more detail below:

To obtain a CMS EHR Certification ID, follow the steps outlined below:

• 1. Select your practice type by selecting the Ambulatory or Inpatient buttons.
• 2. Search for EHR Products by browsing all products, searching by product name or searching by criteria met.
• 3. Add product(s) to your cart to determine if your product(s) meet 100% of the required criteria.
• 4. Request a CMS EHR Certification ID for CMS registration or attestation from your cart page.

Once a user has added products to their cart which satisfy 100% of the required certification criteria, all of the alphabetical criteria bars will be highlighted in blue.

The “Requesting Your CMS EHR Certification ID” section will appear on the right side of the screen, and the user can select the “Get CMS EHR Certification ID” button to generate the ID. The user will be directed to the CMS EHR Certification ID page, and a CMS EHR Certification ID number will be displayed.

What is the difference between a CHPL Product Number and a CMS EHR Certification Identification Number?

A CMS EHR Certification Identification Number is a number generated by the CHPL used for reporting to CMS for Meaningful Use attestation. It represents a product or combination of products in the CHPL.

Each certified EHR product on the CHPL has a product number assigned to it by the ONC-ATCB that tested and certified the product. This is called the “CHPL Product Number.” The CHPL Product Number is distinct from (i.e. NOT) the CMS EHR Certification Identification Number used for reporting to CMS.
