What is the Certified Health IT Product List (CHPL), and where can I find a list of certified Health IT Systems?
The Certified Health IT Product List (CHPL), provides an authoritative, comprehensive listing of health IT modules that have been tested and certified through the ONC Health IT Certification Program.
All certified health IT systems are posted on the Certified Health IT Product List (CHPL).
D2. How do I use the Certified Health IT Product List (CHPL) and obtain a CMS EHR Certification ID?
Step-by-step instructions [PDF - 1.9 MB] for navigating the Certified Health IT Product List (CHPL) and obtaining a CMS EHR Certification ID are available on the CHPL website.
D3. How can I check that the electronic health record (EHR) or Health IT Module that I’m using is certified, and how often is the Certified Health IT Product List (CHPL) updated?
If your Health IT Module is listed on the Certified Health IT Product List (CHPL), it has been certified through the ONC Health IT Certification Program. The CHPL is updated, at minimum, once per week.
D4. What should I do if I do not see my certified Health IT Module on the CHPL?
If you do not see your ONC certified Complete EHR or Health IT Module posted, please contact the ONC-Authorized Certification Body (ONC-ACB) that certified your product.
Contact information for all ONC-ACBs can be found here.
D5. What does "Additional Software Required” mean?
"Additional Software Required" includes any additional software that a certified Complete EHR or Health IT Module relied upon to demonstrate its compliance with a certification criterion or criteria adopted by the Secretary of the United States Department of Health and Human Services.
D6. What is the difference between a Certified Health IT Product List (CHPL) Product Number and a CMS EHR Certification ID?
Each certified Health IT Module on the CHPL has a “CHPL Product Number” assigned to it by the ONC-Authorized Certification Body (ONC-ACB) that certified the product. The CMS EHR Certification Identification Number is a number generated by the CHPL that represents a Health IT Module or combination of Health IT Modules, which are used for reporting EHR Incentive Programs.
D7. How do I get my Health IT Module listed on the Certified Health IT Product List (CHPL)?
Health IT Modules must be tested by an ONC-Authorized Testing Laboratory (ONC-ATL) and then certified by an ONC-Authorized Certification Body (ONC-ACB) to be listed on the CHPL.
Once the product has been certified, the ONC-ACB will initiate the process to have the product listed on the CHPL.
D8. Who do I contact with questions or concerns about the Certified Health IT Product List (CHPL) or if my CHPL listing is incorrect?
Developers with questions about their Certified Health IT Module should contact the ONC-Authorized Testing and Certification Body (ONC-ATCB) or ONC-Authorized Certification Body (ONC-ACB) that certified their Health IT Module.
If the ONC-ACB cannot or does not address your issue, submit your issue to ONC via the Centralized Feedback System. Select the applicable category to enter a ticket.
