If your practice accepts Medicare, participating in a Medicare Quality Payment Program (QPP) is an essential part of maximizing your reimbursements.

There are many ways electronic health records (EHRs) ensure data is accurate and healthcare operations run smoothly, allowing specialty care providers and their teams to better serve patients. The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) recognized these benefits – including enhanced coordination of care, improved public health reporting, increased patient engagement, and better security – and created the Meaningful Use program in 2011 to encourage providers to incorporate EHRs into their operations. This program has changed over the years, and there are important requirements and updates all practices should brush up on to maintain compliance.
When the U.S. government unveiled the Merit-Based Incentive Payment System, or MIPS, it offered small medical practices a chance to increase their Medicare Part B reimbursements. By providing and documenting excellent patient care, clinicians can raise their reimbursement rate by up to 9%. However, small clinics with limited resources often struggle to fulfill the requirements of MIPS reporting. This guide covers how MIPS works and how your small specialty practice can raise its score and qualify for higher reimbursements.
