eCQMs 101 Course

Tuesday, Sept. 18
12-12:45 a.m. ET

The health care landscape continues to evolve, moving away from a fee-for-service model toward a value-based system. To comply with mandates of Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act (MACRA) legislation, Medicare continues to change how physicians are reimbursed through implementation of the Quality Payment Program (QPP). Commercial payers are increasingly adding their own value-based payment models as well.

In response to payment reform demands, providers are redesigning their delivery of services. The Merit-based Incentive Payment System (MIPS), alternative payment models and bundled payments are among the options that providers must consider for their practices. Physician leaders are also examining the potential of health care technologies to provide high-quality, cost-effective care. Accurate performance metric tracking and reporting are critical to improving organizational performance and professional reimbursement.

Join Vizient® on Tuesday, Sept. 18, to hear insights about changing regulatory requirements and the importance of accurate and timely reporting. We will discuss our experience working with member hospitals and physician practices during their transition to value-based care. In addition, we will share how the selection, tracking and reporting of specific metrics can improve practice performance and reimbursement.

Learning Objectives:

• Learn how and why the health care landscape is evolving toward a value-based system
• Review the current regulations used to monitor and report quality metrics, as well as how best to meet them
• Illustrate examples of both the MIPS and advanced alternative payment model tracks in the QPP

Tying payments to performance across quality and cost dimensions requires robust measurement and reporting. Hospitals and providers, however, are demanding relief from regulatory burdens including quality reporting. What gives?

In response to both internal needs and external pressures, CMS continues to propose dramatic changes in its Quality Reporting programs. While this session will primarily focus on these hospital and ambulatory changes for quality reporting in 2018, future reporting trends and lessons applicable across the continuum of care will also be discussed. In addition, we’ll share some strategies that will help you to better manage multiple measure types for the major regulatory reporting programs.

Objectives:

• Review 2018 reporting requirements and discuss future trends in quality reporting.
• Gain insight into what quality reporting is likely to look like beyond 2018.
• Learn strategies to help you stay on top of the complex and changing reporting requirements year after year.
