How do I create a correspondence log/ How do I update the correspondence log?

The Correspondence Log is the official record for the package. The Correspondence Log can be used as a communication tool, where CMS provides information to the state and the state can respond. Only the SPOC and the CMS Point of Contact can write in the correspondence log, but others may view the correspondence log in a package for reference.

1. Log in to MACPro as the CMS Point of Contact.
2. Select the "Records" tab from the upper tool bar, and then select "Submission Packages" for your state.
3. Next, select your Package ID.
4. You will be taken to the Summary screen of your package. Select "Related Actions" from the left panel.
5. Next, select "Create Correspondence Log"
6. Enter in your information and then select "Create Correspondence Log"
