10 Description Health Endeavors stop taking new 2016 EHR Import Builds December 2, 2016 Time Period Health Endeavors stop taking 2016 EHR Imports (automation and Submit a Request files) January 31, 2017 Health Endeavors Single and Spec File Mass Imports Last Date to upload March 14, 2017 Patient ranking files are scheduled to be available for download from the Medicare GPRO WI. January 3 6, 2017 A training version of the Medicare GPRO WI is scheduled to be open for the 2016 reporting period. January 9 13, 2017 Health Endeavors GPRO 2016 tool opens for XML data collection. Health Endeavors uploads the XML to Medicare GPRO WI on a weekday daily basis commencing January 17, January 9, 2017 The Medicare GPRO WI opens for quality reporting (data entry and submission) on Tuesday, January 17, 2017, and closes on Friday, March 17, 2017, at 8 pm ET (7 pm CT, 6 pm MT, and 5 pm PT). January 17 March, 17, /2/

11 11 GPRO Web Interface Reporting Requirements The 18 GPRO Web Interface measures are associated with 8 disease modules or patient care measures. The 18 disease module or patient care measures in the GPRO Web Interface are pre-filled with 17 beneficiary samples for each ACO. For each beneficiary sample, the ACO is required to consecutively confirm and complete 248 beneficiaries, or 100% of their sampled beneficiaries if < 248 are available.

12 12 GPRO Web Interface Sampling: Selecting the Sample Each measure will have its own beneficiary sample. In other words, each ACO will have 16 samples of 616 beneficiaries, and one sample of 750 beneficiaries (for the statin therapy measure). The beneficiary s place in the sample (e.g., 1, 2, 3, etc.) is referred to as the beneficiary s rank. Each ACO is required to confirm and complete data entry on 248 consecutive beneficiaries for each measure GPRO Web Interface Sampling Methodology: Instruments/PQRS/downloads/2016_WebInterface_Sampling-.pdf

13 13 GPRO Web Interface Reporting Prior to the opening of the GPRO Web Interface submission period, ACOs will be able to access their Patient Ranking file which includes: The ACO s beneficiary samples for each module/measure, Each beneficiary s rank order number in each module/measure, The TIN or CCN at which the patient received the most care, and 3 NPIs from whom the beneficiary received the most care. This file will be provided both as a download from the GPRO Web Interface, and as an Excel file.

14 14 GPRO Web Interface Sampling: FAQs Q: Why are there so many beneficiaries in each sample (an oversample) if we only need to report on 248? A: CMS provides an oversample for each measure in case medical record data indicate some beneficiaries are not appropriate for the sample. An oversample allows those beneficiaries to be skipped and replaced with another sampled beneficiary, so the 248 beneficiary requirement can still be reached. Q: What if my ACO doesn t have enough beneficiaries for a complete sample of 616, or 750? A: Some ACOs may not have 616 (or 750) eligible beneficiaries for some measures. In those cases CMS provides all the eligible beneficiaries that are available. Similarly, if you do not have 248 beneficiaries to report on, you must report on all the eligible beneficiaries that are available to your ACO.

15 15 GPRO Web Interface Sampling: FAQs Q: Will my ACO really have 10,606 beneficiaries in its sample (616 beneficiaries for 16 measures, plus 750 beneficiaries for the statin therapy measure)? A: No. In order to minimize the resource burden on practices, CMS samples in a way that maximizes beneficiary overlap between each measure s sample. This means a single beneficiary may be sampled for multiple measures. To the extent possible, for a single beneficiary that is sampled into more than one measure, CMS assigns a similar rank to the beneficiary in each of those measures.

16 16 GPRO Web Interface: Skip Reasons A beneficiary is removed from all measures and performance calculations if these skip reasons are chosen: Not Qualified for Sample Medical Record Not Found

17 17 GPRO Web Interface: Skip Reasons Not Qualified for Sample Beneficiary was in hospice during the performance year Beneficiary moved out of the country during the performance year Beneficiary died during the performance year Beneficiary was enrolled in an HMO during the performance year

18 18 GPRO Web Interface: Skip Reasons, cont d Medical Record Not Found (MRNF) It is expected that the ACO make every effort to locate/obtain access to the medical record and that the providers within the ACO share the necessary records/data for the purposes of coordinating care and reporting quality measure information Elevated rates of selecting MRNF is a factor considered for inclusion in the Quality Measures Validation Audit

19 19 GPRO Web Interface: Skip Reasons, cont d A beneficiary is removed from a specific measure (Skip): Diagnosis could not be confirmed Denominator inclusion criteria are not met (age, gender) Denominator exclusion criteria are met Other CMS approved reason requested Must obtain CMS approval before selecting Other CMS approved reason the QualityNet Help Desk (qnetsupport@hcqis.org) to work with CMS for approval Include the beneficiary rank, measure, and reason for request Maintain the approved Help Desk ticket number for entry in the GPRO Web Interface

37 Tips & Pitfalls Review your QM 2016 Import Chart Have a Plan of Action for excessive measure Skips. Do not get stuck on 1 record. In the first 10 days complete as many records as possible. You can always return to a record. Do not spend a lot of time on requested dates in the questions if not legible as CMS allows us to default to December 31, 2016 if date is illegible. Do not overwrite data unless you are certain of the data is correct and more recent than the data entered. Click Submit Data to CMS daily. Be done in 6 weeks (NOT 8 weeks) To obtain Shared Savings = GET DONE 12/2/

38 Ranks Random Sample Rank File received in January, 2017 NOTE Has been sent to MFT portal for past 4 years Patients Ranked 1 to 616 in each Module May have less than 616 if not enough patients to fill the module Required to complete 1 to 248 consecutively 249 to 616 the oversample [Patient or Module Skips] Focus on completion of 1 to 248 (Lowest to Highest Rank) Generally ACOs urge working 350 and below to account for skips in the first 2 weeks. 12/2/

73 Audit Changes 2016 GPRO RANDOM SAMPLE REPORTING 12/2/

74 74 GPRO Web Interface: Quality Measures Validation Audit ACO, Measure, and Beneficiary Selection Shared Savings Program ACOs may be selected for audit In 2016, 10% of the SSP ACOs will be selected for audit Selection will be random or based on data anomalies Anomalies include such things as unusually high skip rates due to Medical Record Not Found Audit Measure and Beneficiary Selection CMS will audit about 200 records per ACO, across 4 to 5 measures All records will be reviewed by CMS Pioneer and Next Generation Model ACOs Information on the 2016 QMV Audit will be provided in the Pioneer Briefing and the Next Generation ACO Newsletter

75 75 GPRO Web Interface: Quality Measures Validation Audit, Process and Impact At the end of the audit, CMS will provide education and feedback regarding the findings. CMS will calculate the overall match rate Overall match rate = 100% Number of matches Number of records audited If the overall match rate is < 90%, the ACO s overall quality score may be reduced proportional to the ACO s Quality Measures Validation Audit match rate, and thus may impact financial reconciliation Example: If ACO earns an overall quality score of 95.00% and has a Quality Measures Validation Audit match rate of 80.00%, their final overall quality score used in financial reconciliation may be reduced to 95.00% 80.00% = 76.00% Please follow the Shared Savings Program ACO Spotlight Newsletter for information on an upcoming QMV Audit Webinar on January 9, Pioneer and Next Generation Model ACOs Please follow the Pioneer Briefing and the Next Generation ACO Newsletter for information on upcoming QMV Audit Webinars.

76 10% of ACOs will be audited for matching documentation to the answer submitted for measure 200 records will be reviewed 4-5 QMs with beneficiaries per QM If ACO match rate is <90%, it will be applied to actual performance rate and that will become the performance upon which Shared Savings is based. Ex: QM performance = 95% QM match rate = 80% 95% x 80% = new performance rate of 76% (So performance drops considerably) Bottom line MUST document exactly where in the medical record the answer was found. Use our comments section to document location of DOCUMENTATION. 12/2/
