Critical access hospitals that did not achieve meaningful use in the Medicare EHR Program for the 2017 reporting period can apply for a hardship exception to avoid a 2017 payment adjustment through Nov. 30.
Inpatient prospective payment system hospitals that did not achieve meaningful use or receive a hardship exception for the 2017 reporting period can apply for reconsideration of their fiscal year 2019 payment adjustment through Dec. 21.
