Meaningful Use Audit<\/h1>\n<h5>August 1, 2016<\/h5>\n<h6>Written by Patty Kosednar<\/h6>\n<p>One sure fire way to fail a meaningful use audit is to not have the documentation to support your MU performance.\u00a0 Don\u2019t let this happen to you.\u00a0 Take a look at the CMS Audit tip sheet (which was updated for this year) which gives you a good list of how to document both the threshold measures (the ones that you attest with numerator\/denominator data) and the yes\/no measures.<\/p>\n<p>Give yourself a break and create some of this documentation now so it doesn\u2019t get lost in the end of year MU madness.\u00a0 Make electronic copies of all your CMS audit documentation and store it on a network\/computer drive that gets backed up regularly.<\/p>\n<p>Get a copy of
