MIPS 2022 Quality Measures Consultation Available
for Eligible Clinicians

Maximize Your Score & Qualify for Bonus in 2024

MIPS 2022 offers more than incentives and bonuses to a physician. It has a significant impact on a provider’s professional reputation as well. This payment adjustment program requires data submission from all eligible participants and give a fair payment adjustment or a penalty to them, depending upon the QPP MIPS score they get. Moreover, those who have not participated in MIPS during COVID, or have other hardship exceptions, and practices from rural areas can now also take advantage of MIPS 2022 measures to better perform and score.

The Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act (MACRA) is bipartisan legislation that is driving QPP MIPS and all such programs. This reflects the empowerment of the MACRA act. In past, President Obama took the initiative and signed the Affordable Care Act into law on March 23, 2010, to improve the quality access to affordable health practices for everyone. Likewise, MACRA was converted into law on April 16, 2015.

MIPS 2022 is now ongoing and CMS has made several changes to current MIPS reporting. For instance, CMS has upgraded the performance threshold score from 45-60 to eschew any penalty like every other year. So, all the MIPS eligible clinicians can now submit their data for different measures till March 31, 2023, in a series of steps. Just like QPP 2018, QPP 2019, QPP 2020, and QPP 2021, again CMS has allowed MIPS-qualified registries like ours to submit data on behalf of eligible practices for QPP 2022.

MACRA and MIPS work together. Quality, value, and accountability serve as the cornerstones of MIPS. Eligible clinicians (ECs) have nothing to lose and everything to gain as long as the goal is achieved. MIPS incentives are always there to provide your practice with the necessary boost.

What is MACRA in MIPS 2022?

Both MACRA and MIPS are entangled deeply with each other. They both are the same as MACRA is the key legislation that covers several US healthcare programs and QPP is one among them. It has integrated the Merit-based Incentive Payment System (MIPS) as all-in-one combination of several programs like the Physician Quality Reporting System (PQRS), the Value-based Modifier (VBM), and the Medicare Electronic Health Record (EHR) program.

Through the MIPS program, value-based care is infused throughout the healthcare system. According to the Centres for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), MACRA is the implementation of a new payment system that compensates physicians for providing better care rather than seeing more patients.

Now, clinicians are free to perform the best of their services covering the four MIPS performance categories i.e., Quality, Cost, Promoting Interoperability (PI), and Improvement Activities (IA). The overall MIPS score is calculated by the quality of data submitted for all these categories during the respective performance year. However, the MIPS Quality measures have a common characteristic in that they are typically six in number for practices.

Fee for Service to Pay for Performance

The Health and Human Services (HHS) department implements the overall MIPS program. Any MIPS-eligible participant can take part in four ways. One of them is MIPS reporting and data submission via any Qualified Registry. So, being a time-tested and reliable MIPS Qualified Registry, P3Care is valuable for Medicare providers with different specialties. Anyone across the board can hire us for successful MIPS reporting to CMS.

As the US healthcare system has turned from a fee-for-service payment module to a Payment-for-Performance module, a value-based reimbursement system is much appreciated for the current practices.

As health IT consultants, we believe Healthcare MIPS is well-directed and purpose-driven. However, because of the reporting burden, it cannot always be fair to clinicians. Physicians become exhausted as a result of the administrative load, which can be attributed to EHR and its burdensome list of measures. As a result, CMS has removed some of the measures from MIPS 2022 to reduce some strain.

MIPS 2022 Specialties

Since each of the MIPS performance categories has to undergo reporting for a specific period, P3 Healthcare Solutions, Ontario, CA knows what it takes to report them.

Frequently Asked Questions

An eligible participant can take part in MIPS 2022 in four ways, depending on which option better suits them or they are eligible for:
1. Individual Level
2. Group Level
3. Virtual Group Level
4. MIPS APM Entity

Various factors can directly or indirectly influence your eligibility for MIPS reporting. Some of them are listed below:
● MIPS data submission for segment I but not for segment II
● Not being consistent with your provider type in both segments of the Eligibility Determination Period
● Change your TIN in segment II of billing Medicare Part B claims without informing MIPS
● Join up to any APM Entity in segment II of billing Medicare Part B claims
● Not exceeding LVT in QPP MIPS 2022 Eligibility Determination Period
● QP status Change (A MIPS reporting EC doesn’t require achieving QP status to be eligible in PY22)

There are several significant changes that are subject to be effective in QPP MIPS for Performance Year 2022 but two considerable changes are in the ECs list and the changes in reporting categories.
As per the new law, now both Cost and Quality performance categories share equivalent weight in the MIPS final score formation i.e.,30% from each category. The rest of the 40% MIPS reporting score is calculated by considering 15% weightage from Improvement Activities and 25% from Interoperability Promotion.

No, CMS does not assure the success of every vendor. CMS, however, makes a public list of the qualified registries (QRs) and qualified clinical data registries (QCDRs). You can review them to find the best possible option for you

The certified 2015 electronic health record technology (CEHRT) edition is required for medical practitioners to participate in MIPS. It is possible to get a hardship exemption though depending on (1) the reporting options given for the category and (2) whether you participate as an individual, group, or virtual group.
