What is PQRS?
• The Physician Quality Reporting System
– Pay-for-reporting program established in 2007
– Combination of incentives and payment adjustments (dis-incentives) to eligible professionals and selected group practices
– Report data on defined quality measures
• The Physician Quality Reporting System will be the basis for the Value-Based Modifier
Polling
• Will you report to CMS on Physician Quality Reporting System (PQRS) for year 2012?
– Yes
– No
– Undecided
Incentives and Payment Adjustments
• Federal legislation authorized incentive payments through 2014
• Payment Adjustments (Dis-incentives) are proposed for 2015 and beyond (-1.5% in 2015 and -2.0% in 2016 and beyond). The 2015 dis-incentive is based on the 2013 calendar year. Report in 2013 to avoid dis-incentive!!!
• Additional incentive of 0.5% by working with a Maintenance of Certification entity
• 2011 - 1.0% incentive • 2012 - 0.5% incentive
• 2013 - 0.5% incentive • 2014 - 0.5% incentive
Who Can Participate?
• Medicare Eligible Professionals (EPs) include physicians, practitioners, and therapists
• For details on participants see http://www.cms.gov/PQRS/Downloads/EligibleProfessionals.pdf
• These professionals must meet the minimum number or percentage of Medicare Part B Fee-for-Service patients for the measures they choose
Reporting
• Five methods to report PQRS measures:
– Claims Based Reporting
– External Registry
– EHR Data Submission Vendor Reporting
– Direct EHR Based Reporting
– Group Practice Reporting Option
• Validation steps required with all methods
• Six- (Jul-Dec) or 12- (Jan-Dec) month time periods are used based on reporting method
Polling
• If you answered yes to the first question, which method of reporting will you use for 2012 ?
– Claims
– EHR – Direct
– EHR – Data Submission Vendor
– External Registry
– GPRO
Method #1 – Claims Based Reporting
• CPT and G-Codes are added to Medicare claims that include clinical information on a subset of patients
• Medicare does the measure calculation and sends a feedback report and incentive check annually
• Providers must report on at least 3 measures of 211
Method #2 – External Registry
• Provider submits data on 3 measures electronically to a registry.
• The external certified registry then captures, stores, calculates, and submits to Medicare the measure related data.
• Registries must be certified with Medicare and starting in 2012 cannot be EHR based data. Claims or Web based.
• Select from over 200 measures
Method #3 – EHR Data Submission Vendor Reporting
• New in 2012
• Similar to registry reporting only done by EHR vendor
• The vendor captures, stores, calculates, and submits to Medicare the measure related data
• Select from over 50 measures
• Report on 80% of applicable Medicare Part B FFs patients
Method #4 – Direct EHR Based Reporting
• Provider chooses 3 measures to report
• Provider must be using a qualified EHR to report to Medicare patient level data
• Report on 80% of applicable Medicare Part B FFs patients
• List of qualified EHR products is published on the Medicare website
I was in MCMP-now what ??
• MCMP was a Medicare pilot for four years in states of UT, AR, MA, CA from 2007-2011
• Combination of claims and clinical data
• Participants received a free waiver on PQRS
• The GPRO option is very similar to MCMP. GPRO uses the same software tool as MCMP.
• More measures in GPRO than there were in MCMP.
Method #5 – Group Practice Reporting Option (GPRO)
• Available for practices of 25 or more NPIs
• Involves claims and clinical data on a larger measure set (around 26 measures)
• Claims databases are compiled by Medicare and sent to the clinics. The database is then completed either electronically or manually and sent back to Medicare. Once a year.
• Very similar to the MCMP P4P pilot program that ended in 2011
Meaningful Use Quality Measures/PQRS pilot program
• EHR-based reporting (Alignment with
Medicare EHR Incentive Program) of all three Medicare EHR Incentive Program core measures OR up to 3 Medicare EHR Incentive Program alternate core measures AND 3 additional measures for the Medicare EHR Incentive Program
• Pilot at this Stage – Beware of Delays!!
PQRS Summary
• 5 Different Ways to Report
• Get involved to avoid dis-incentives and prepare for value-based purchasing
• Contact your EHR vendor to find out which options they have available

Multiple Incentive Programs
• Providers can get both the EHR-MU incentive and the PQRS incentive money.
• The e-Rx incentive is not available if a provider is receiving the EHR-MU incentive
