Join NQF for a Member-exclusive presentation on Thursday, May 19 from 3:00-4:00pm ET, exploring the proposed rules for the Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act (MACRA) issued by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS).
Robert Anthony, Deputy Director, Quality Measurement & Value-Based Incentives Group, Center for Clinic Standards and Quality, CMS, will discuss efforts to modernize and streamline Medicare clinician level payment programs and further link payment to quality patient care for hundreds of thousands of physicians and other clinicians.
Learn about the proposed rule to implement MACRA's two payment pathways: the Merit-Based Incentive Payment System (MIPS) and Advanced Alternative Payment Models (APMs). Mr. Anthony will provide more detail about proposed changes related to the evolution of the Meaningful Use program to Advancing Care Information (ACI). ACI is one of four performance categories under MIPS used to calculate the composite score used for payment.
Register now to find out how these draft regulations could shape the implementation of MACRA and could affect eligible professionals under the rule. Public comment on the proposed rule is open through June 26, 2016.
