On Monday August 10, 2020, CMS updated the AUC website to announce that the Educational and Operations Testing Period, during which there are not payment penalties, has been extended through 2021. This update is included at the top of the page with the green boarder: https://www.cms.gov/Medicare/Quality-Initiatives-Patient-Assessment-Instruments/Appropriate-Use-Criteria-Program.

We do not have further information to share at this time, but as new information becomes available it will be accessible via the Outreach and Education page of the AUC website: https://www.cms.gov/Medicare/Quality-Initiatives-Patient-Assessment-Instruments/Appropriate-Use-Criteria-Program/OandE.
