The Merit-Based Incentive Payment System (MIPS) in the Quality Payment Program

CMS on the MACRA Proposed Rule and MIPS

From the CMS Announcement:

Title: Overview of the Quality Payment Program Proposed Rule

Date: Tuesday, May 3, 2016

Time: 12:00pm-1:00pm ET

Details: The Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act of 2015 (MACRA) changes the way Medicare rewards clinicians for providing quality care by streamlining multiple quality programs into a new Quality Payment Program tied to Part B Fee-For-Service payments. With the implementation of MACRA and the replacement of the Sustainable Growth Rate, we will pay clinicians participating in the Merit-based Incentive Payment System or Advanced Alternative Payment Models of the Quality Payment Program beginning in 2019. This listening session is an opportunity for stakeholders to provide CMS early feedback on proposed policy for the Quality Payment Program. We encourage participants to review the proposed rule (CMS-5517-P) prior to the listening session.
