3 This webinar is based on official guidance provided by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) and the Office of the National Coordinator (ONC), experiences from IL-HITREC, and other Regional Extension Centers. It is by no means all-inclusive of the types of documentation you must keep to support your attestation, but this webinar provides a starting point. IL-HITREC is not giving legal advice. If you are audited, you should consult your Certified EHR Technology (CEHRT) vendor and/or legal advisor.

4 You cannot escape the responsibility of tomorrow by evading it today." Abraham Lincoln The time to prepare for an audit is before you receive the letter.
