Requesting access to CMS systems requires two steps to obtain two separate login IDs.
Step 1:
Use the CMSNet Online Registration to request a CMSNet User ID.
The CMSNet ID is needed to access secure CMS sites (e.g., submissions pages/reports) unless an otherwise secure connection has been established.

Step 2:
Use the QIES online User Registration tool to obtain a QIES Submission ID.
Once you have registered for a CMSNet User ID, you will receive an email from MDCN.mco@palmettogba.com containing your login information. Using this information you will connect through the 'CMS Secure Access Service'.
Once securely connected, select the 'CMS QIES Systems for Providers' link to access the QIES online 'User Registration' tool. New users must utilize the online 'User Registration' tool to obtain a QIES Submission login ID (the only exception is Multiple Facility [aka Corporate] accounts).
The Steps to Access ePOC Application document contains detailed information on accessing the ePOC and ASPEN Web applications.
Please NOTE: CMS allows a total of four ePOC user accounts
Existing MDS Account: If you already have an MDS account for your facility and would like to add ePOC access, you may use Access Update to do so. Refer to the 'Steps to Access ePOC Application' document for further instructions.
