MAP Pre-Rulemaking Report - February 2013 

On December 1, 2012, the Measure Applications Partnership (MAP) received and commenced review of a list of more than 500 measures under consideration by HHS for use in twenty federal programs covering clinician, hospital, and post-acute care/long-term care settings. The MAP Pre-Rulemaking Report: 2013 Recommendations on Measures Under Consideration by HHS represents MAP’s second annual round of input regarding the performance measures currently under consideration for use in federal programs. Additionally, the report identifies priority measure gaps and proposes solutions to filling them by working closely with measure developers to stimulate development and testing for the highest priority gaps.
