SUMMARY:Medicare Quality Reporting Programs 2016
DESCRIPTION:Overview:\nPhysicians who participate in Medicare face a r
 ange of reporting obligations. Although not quite a \"pay for performa
 nce\" system at the present, in recent years Medicare has increased th
 e number of reporting programs which track a variety of data. PQRS, Me
 aningful Use, and the Value-based Payment Modifier all tie physician c
 ompensation under the MPFS to reporting of data.\nReporting under thes
 e systems, however, is a complex and detailed process. Often there are
  multiple reporting mechanisms from which a physician may choose, each
  of which may require its own specific data set. Failure to properly r
 eport under these various mechanisms can result in significant reducti
 ons in overall MPFS compensation. Moreover, data reported today will f
 orm the basis for future compensation reductions. Where a payment redu
 ction should have occurred, but did not due to improper reporting, any
  overpayment retained more than sixty days after it was identified or 
 should have been identified will convert to false claims. The MIPS sys
 tem will consolidate much of the reporting, but will eventually expose
  providers to even higher levels of upward or downward payment adjustm
 ent than they currently face.\nThis presentation examines the three ma
 in physician reporting mechanisms that Medicare currently has (PQRS, M
 eaningful Use, and the Value-based Payment Modifier), providing brief 
 background and discussing common problems for each system, as well as 
 areas of overlap between them. The presentation also addresses MIPS, a
 nd how the current systems relate to it. In addition, the presentation
  explains the False Claims Act liability inherent in both the current 
 systems and in MIPS, and how improper reporting under these systems ca
 n potentially result in overpayments. Finally, the presentation discus
 ses proactive steps that physician practices can take to help ensure c
 ompliance with these systems to avoid such liability.\n\n\n\nPrice : $
