CMS is Accepting Measure Submissions for the Advancing Care Information Performance Category until June 30
There’s still time to submit measures for the Advancing Care Information performance category of the Merit-based Incentive Payment System (MIPS). The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services’ (CMS) Annual Call for Measures and Activities ends June 30, 2017.
CMS encourages providers to identify and submit measures for the MIPS Advancing Care Information performance category. To be considered, proposals must include specific criteria including, but not limited to, measure description, measure type and numerator and denominator descriptions.
CMS requests that stakeholders consider outcome-based measures, patient safety measures, and measures are cross cutting which use certified EHR technology to support the improvement activities and quality performance categories of MIPS.
