EIDM Annual Certification of Accounts

With the transition from IACS to EIDM for the management of PS&R user accounts complete, EIDM is preparing to re-enforce the requirement for annual certification of accounts. EIDM will be sending Security Officials regular e-mails indicating which of their users are due for certification, when that certification is due, and instructions on how to perform the certification.

For all existing users, their certification due date has been set to 3/15/2016, and thereafter all existing and new accounts must be recertified by the Security Official on a no-less-than annual basis. If Security Officials do not perform the required certification of their users’ access, those users will lose access to PS&R and will have to make a new access request to regain entry. Idle user accounts which are not re-certified by Security Officials may be removed from the system altogether.

Note:

  • End users will not receive a notification from EIDM regarding the need for their account to be re-certified – only the Security Officials will receive these e-mails.
  • All certification activities in EIDM are performed by the Security Official; there are no system steps for end users to take.
  • The e-mail will be from donotreply@cms.gov, and should’ve started arriving on/around 2/15/2016.
  • Security Officials - If you do not see any such e-mails:
      o Check your spam/junk e-mail folder
      o Log into your profile on EIDM (https://portal.cms.govExternal Website) and confirm that your
      e-mail address is up-to-date
