Did you know that all ACG members can apply for and receive a Stage 2 Meaningful Use hardship exemption for the 2015 reporting year?  Congress passed this hardship exemption in late 2015.  Please find the easy to use instructions here.  The deadline is July 1, 2016.  Also take note that even ACG members attesting to meeting the 2015 Meaningful Use reporting year can also apply for this blanket hardship exemption, simply as additional security and without penalty.

Check out Dr. Knapple’s blog from May on Meaningful Use and the 2016 reporting year
