Statewide Integrated Governmental Management Applications (SIGMA) Information
On October 1, 2017, the State of Michigan will be unveiling its new Statewide Integrated Governmental Management Applications (SIGMA) system which is part of Governor Snyder’s vision to improve and streamline functions within state government. SIGMA provides an improved accounting system, a fully integrated procurement system, and a better time, attendance and labor system. SIGMA will replace the legacy MAIN accounting system.
For purposes of the Medicaid EHR Incentive Program, the last payments out of MAIN need to be approved by State of Michigan review staff by September 9, 2017 in order to have enough time to process. Attestations that have not been completed by September 9, 2017 will be paid out of the new SIGMA system. Under SIGMA, attestations must include a SIGMA ID input by the provider, so providers missing the September 9, 2017 date will need to return to attest after October 1, 2017 in order to properly attest for an incentive payment.
To avoid payment delays, we encourage providers that need to complete 2016 attestations yet or are actively working on 2017 registrations to complete them as soon as possible to give state staff enough time to properly review and process. Providers can expect a several month delay in payment for failure to meet the September 9, 2017 deadline.
