1 Advancing Care Information- The New Meaningful Use September 2017
2 ACO Announcements Reminders: ACO Notifications PECOS-Maintain active enrollment 2017 Patient Prospective Lists Upcoming provider/office manager meetings: CMP/IHA PRIMARY VALUE MEETING Internal Medicine, Family Practice and Office Managers Hilton Garden Inn, Airport September 28, 2017 Registration/Dinner 5:30pm 6:00pm Meeting 6:00pm 7:00pm CMP/HealthNow Best Practice Efficiency Meeting Internal Medicine, Family Practice and Office Managers CHARTC Building, Conference Room 1A, B & C 144 Genesee St (Elm/Oak) October 19, 2017 Registration/Dinner 5:30pm 6:00pm Meeting 6:00pm 7:00pm
3 Agenda Overlap with Medicare Shared Savings Program (ACO) Overview MACRA Advancing Care Information (ACI) New Meaningful Use Measures/Objectives/Scoring Q&A
4 Quality Measurement: Domains 31 quality measures are separated into the following four key domains that will serve as the basis for assessing, benchmarking, rewarding, and improving ACO quality performance: 1. Patient/Caregiver Experience 2. Care Coordination/Patient Safety 3. Preventive Health 4. Clinical Care for At Risk Population
5 ACO #11 Use of Certified EHR Technology Measure Description Percentage of ACO Eligible Clinicians who successfully meet the ACI Base Score requirements. Denominator All ECs who are participating in an ACO in the reporting year under the Shared Savings Program. Exclusions: physicians meeting low-volume threshold, physicians who are new to Medicare, ECs with ACI performance category reweighted to 0% Numerator ECs included in the denominator who successfully achieved the ACI Base Score for the reporting year corresponding with the performance year.
6 2017 Reporting Year ACO Quality Measure Benchmark Domain Measure Description 30th percentile 40 th percentile 50 th percentile 60 th percentile 70 th percentile 80 th 90 th percentile percentile Care Coordination/Patient Safety ACO-11 Use of Certified EHR Technology
7 What is MACRA? Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act Repealed the sustainable growth rate (SGR) Locks provider payments at a near zero growth rate Implementation is slated for January 1, 2019 Performance data from 2017 will be used for 2019 payment adjustments Created a new payment model, the Quality Payment Program (QPP) with 2 payment tracks Merit-Based Incentive Payment System (MIPS) Advanced Alternative Payment Models (Advanced APMs)
8 The 2 tracks of Quality Payment Program Advanced Alternative Payment Model Merit Based Incentive Payment System
9 Advanced Alternative Payment Models Participants required to use certified EHR technology (CEHRT) Must report and at least partially base clinician payments on quality measures comparable to MIPS Bear more than nominal risk for monetary losses CEHRT use Advanced APMs Financial Risk Quality Reporting
10 Current Advanced APMs Comprehensive ESRD Care Model Comprehensive Primary Care Plus Medicare Shared Savings Track 2 Medicare Shared Savings Track 3 Next Generation ACO Model Oncology Care Model Track 2
11 Advanced APM Sufficient Participation To earn the 5% incentive payment & be exempt from MIPS, participants must have sufficient participation in the Advanced APM (i.e., meet QP threshold) Participants that meet the Partial QP threshold do not receive the 5% incentive payment can choose to participate in MIPS and be subject to payment adjustment but are not required
12 Catholic Medical Partners ACO - Advanced APM CMP-ACO is a Track 3 Medicare Shared Savings Program and has been identified by CMS as an Advanced APM Up and downside Risk Quality measures (similar to MIPS) reported to CMS annually Require use of certified EHR technology Based on ECs attesting to the Advancing Care Information base measures. These reporting requirements, only apply to the 2017 reporting year and are subject to change in the future.
13 Merit-Based Incentive Payment System (MIPS) MIPS is a new program that replaces Physician Quality Reporting System (PQRS), Value-based Modifier (VM) and Meaningful Use. There are 4 performance categories in MIPS that eligible clinicians will be scored on: Cost Quality Improvement Activities, and Advancing Care Information Clinicians can report MIPS either as an individual or as a group
14 Who has to attest to MIPS? The MIPS eligible clinicians (ECs) include: Eligible Clinicians that have not been excluded due to Low volume threshold Newly enrolled in Medicare ECs that do not participate in Alternative Payment Models (APMs). ECs that participate in APMs that do not meet the requirements of Advanced APMs. ECs in Advanced APMs that do not meet participation thresholds necessary to be excluded from MIPS for a year (clinicians are not QPs or Partial QPs).
15 What do I need to do? CMP ACO Participant 1. CMS Letters- MIPS Eligible or Exempt Status Status of QP or Partial QP 2. Continue (or begin) Meaningful Use attestations (unless you are excluded) 3. Annual Quality Reporting Audits Non CMP ACO Participant 1. CMS Letters- MIPS Eligible or Exempt Status 2. Continue (or begin) Meaningful Use attestations (unless you are excluded) 3. Choose if participating individually or as group
16 ADVANCING CARE INFORMATION THE NEW MEANINGFUL USE
17 MIPS Category Advancing Care Information in 2017 Advancing Care Information: Replaces Meaningful Use (MU). In 2017, this category is 25% of the eligible clinician s final score Clinicians must use CEHRT to report on the measures This category provides some flexibility for the clinician to chose which measures to report
18 MIPS Category Advancing Care Information in 2017 Advancing Care Information: If EC does not have CEHRT they must submit an application to CMS to re-weight this category to 0% Insufficient internet connectivity Extreme and uncontrollable circumstances Lack of control over the availability of CEHRT ECs that qualify for automatic re-weighting Hospital-based MIPS clinicians, PAs, NPs, clinical nurse specialists, CRNA s, clinicians who lack face-to-face interactions with patients These ECs can still report this category and have it scored
19 Reporting ACI ECs can earn up to 155% in this category 50% - base score (required) 90% - performance score 15% - bonus score Anything over 100% will be capped at 100% In 2017, there are two measure set options for reporting: Advancing Care Information Objectives and Measures 2017 Advancing Care Information Transition Objectives and Measures The option that you will report is based on the edition of CEHRT that you are using.
20 Reporting ACI Performance data can begin any time from January 1-October 2, Data must be submitted to CMS by March 31, Depending on the data you submit, your 2019 Medicare payments will be adjusted up, down, or not at all: Not participating in the Quality Payment Program: If you don t send in any 2017 data, then you receive a negative 4% payment adjustment. Test: If you submit a minimum amount of 2017 data to Medicare (for example, one quality measure or one improvement activity for any point in 2017), you can avoid a downward payment adjustment. Partial: If you submit 90 days of 2017 data to Medicare, you may earn a neutral or positive payment adjustment and may even earn the max adjustment. Full: If you submit a full year of 2017 data to Medicare, you may earn a positive payment adjustment.
21 Reporting ACI In 2017, eligible clinicians can alternatively report the 2017 ACI transition objectives and measures if they have: 2015 CEHRT 2014 CEHRT A combination of 2014 and 2015 CEHRT Formerly Modified Stage 2 Meaningful Use Eligible clinicians can report the ACI objectives and measures if they have: 2015 CEHRT A combination of 2014 and 2015 CEHRT Formerly Stage 3 Meaningful Use GREEN = 2017 TRANSITION
