2012 Meaningful Use Attestation for the Medicaid (AHCCCS) EHR Incentive Program is now open. All Arizona eligible professionals (EPs) who are participating in the Medicaid EHR Incentive Program can now attest online, here: https://www.azepip.gov/.

AHCCCS has created a helpful new tool to guide EPs in collecting and preparing their data for Meaningful Use attestation.  The Eligible Professional Meaningful Use Attestation User Guide will walk you through each part of the Meaningful Use attestation process, including screenshots of the webpages you will see when you attest on the ePIP website.
