Use One Method to Report Issues

Due to the anticipated increase in volume at the CCSQ Service Center and to minimize a backlog, please use only one method of reporting for the same issue (phone, email, or CCSQ Support Central). Note: Cases are processed in the order in which they are received, regardless of how the Service Center was contacted. Please allow time for processing. 

Submit Your Data Early

We encourage you to submit your 2024 eCQM and Promoting Interoperability data early during the submission period. Early submission will allow you plenty of time for Service Center assistance if needed.
