Despite the phasing out of the Medicare Electronic Health Record (EHR) Incentive Program by the Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act of 2015 (MACRA), the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) rule that only
licensed health care professionals or «credentialed medical assistants» are permitted to enter orders into the computerized
provider order entry (CPOE) system for meaningful use calculation purposes under the Medicaid EHR Incentive Program
remains in effect until at least December 31, 2021.
