Whether you’re new to MACRA and MIPS or have vast amounts of experience, the AdvancedMD team of MACRA experts, known as the MACRA posse, has produced these three valuable resources in our MACRA Survival Series to help you succeed.
Even though there’s still time to avoid the 4% penalty in 2017 AND earn a small incentive for MIPS 2017 participation, you need to act fast. You need to begin reporting with a certified EHR, like AdvancedMD, by October 2, 2017 to attest.
We’ve assembled these three step-by-step guides to walk you through the MIPS category scoring, including MACRA Quality, Improvement Activities and Advancing Care Information. These guides show you how to report on the six Measures with AdvancedMD.
1. Quality Beginner’s Guide
60% of the weight for MIPS Performance categories for 2017 is on Quality. We explain the details for each of your chosen Quality criteria and share how to set up and begin collecting necessary data. We detail the differences between two data submission methods: claim-based reporting and EHR-based reporting. You’ll also find a simple (sort of) calculator to determine your Quality Score. As a bonus, we show how to achieve bonus scores. Download our Quality definitive guide for free.
2. Improvement Activities Beginner’s Guide
15% of the weight for MIPS Performance categories for 2017 is on Improvement Activities (IA). We explain the details for each of your chosen IA criteria and share how to set up and begin collecting necessary data. We detail how to choose and report on 1 to 4 improvement activities to earn the full 15%, or 40 IA points. Download our IA definitive guide for free.
3. Advancing Care Information Beginner’s Guide
The remaining 25% of the weight for MIPS Performance categories for 2017 comes from Advancing Care Information (ACI). We explain the details for each of your chosen ACI criteria and share how to set up and begin collecting necessary data.
