Get Ready

CCHIT's Get Ready subscription includes the following resources to prepare you and your entire team for testing:

ONC-ATCB Certification 2011/2012 Handbook and Agreement

All program policies and procedures including how to apply, complete your agreement, submit pre-test documentation, schedule and prepare for testing, and take your certified EHR technology to market.

ONC-ATCB Certified 2011/2012 Test Scripts,  Interoperability Test Guide, Security Test Guide and more

The NIST test procedures arranged in a more convenient format to make preparing for and taking the test more efficient, optional test data to help vendors prepare and demonstrate their systems, and video guidance on how to approach test procedures including interoperability and security.

My Certifications Dashboard

An online tool to help you inventory your EHR technology products whether you have just one or many. You can prepare an analysis of how well your technology already meets ONC criteria and determine if you want to certify a complete EHR or just a module, and calculate the fee. My Certifications helps you manage your current and future certifications including requirements for filing updates.

Online FAQs, Forums and Webinars

Further searchable guidance on how to prepare for an inspection, taking advantage of CCHIT's testing experience, with weekly webinars to deal with common thorny issues. 

There is a subscription fee for the Get Ready program but that fee will be fully credited to your ONC-ATCB certification fees when you apply for testing.
