MIPS Reporting 2020
MIPS 2020 reporting is not as simple as it seems. It requires skilled professionals like us to handle it correctly. Each category under MACRA-MIPS has specific measures. Over 200 MIPS Quality measures focus on your performance in clinical activities and patient outcomes.
Submitting these accurately can help you get a better MIPS healthcare final score. The Improvement Activities category looks at how well you engage with patients, coordinate care, and ensure patient safety. There are more than 200 activities to choose from. Therefore, pick the ones that fit your practice or specialty best to optimize your MIPS healthcare performance.
The third category, Promoting Interoperability (formerly Meaningful Use), evaluates how well clinicians use the 2015 Certified Electronic Health Record Technology (CEHRT) through various measures. We help clinicians choose, understand and submit these measures to earn positive payment adjustments.
Lastly, the Cost category examines the quality of claims related to the care you provide. It assesses how effectively you deliver necessary care while keeping costs low.
MIPS CQMs
We’re discussing MIPS CQMs (Clinical Quality Measures), which used to be registry measures. A MIPS Qualified Registry helps you meet your MIPS-MACRA goals. In the end, both the registry and the provider work together to determine the final MIPS score.
The rewards for quality reporting in MIPS come in the form of incentives and bonuses.
