Healthcare Facilities in Production for COVID-19 Electronic Case Reporting

Thousands of healthcare facilities across the country are using eCR

Starting on January 1, 2022, eCR will be required by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services’ Promoting Interoperability Program (PIP) for eligible hospitals and critical access hospitals and the Merit-Based Incentive Payment System (MIPS) Promoting Interoperability Performance Category for eligible clinicians.

The eCR team offers a variety of resources for learning about eCR and communicating its importance to healthcare organizations and public health agencies.
