9 Key Activities & Deadlines Baselining 1. Identify MIPS eligible clinicians (apply exclusions) 2. Calculate Medicare Part B $ subject to MIPS 3. For clinician/tin/aco, estimate baseline MIPS score using historical MU and PQRS measure values Note: if group reporting, must include data from clinicians individually excluded due to low-volume, first-year Medicare or AAPM participation exclusions) Estimate revenue impact of the baseline score WEBINAR SERIES BROUGHT TO YOU BY: HITECHANSWERS.NET AND SAIGNITE.COM 9

12 Key Activities & Deadlines The Concept of Measure Leverage Current Performance = Baseline MIPS Score = 65 Improvement on #1 Measure due to N more tasks until EOY = Improved MIPS Score = = 70 Improvement on #2 Measure due to N more tasks until EOY = Improved MIPS Score = = 68 WEBINAR SERIES BROUGHT TO YOU BY: HITECHANSWERS.NET AND SAIGNITE.COM 12
13 Key Activities & Deadlines Select reporting methods and measures Best Practice: Compare individual to group reporting impacts on score Best Practice: Be cognizant that different methods have different measure benchmarks (see February 2017 ABCs of MIPS webinar) Best Practice: Factor clinician engagement and administrative burdens into selection decisions Budget, allocate, and organize resources for 2017 and 2018 Monitor measures and drive performance clinician peer comparison is a powerful motivator WEBINAR SERIES BROUGHT TO YOU BY: HITECHANSWERS.NET AND SAIGNITE.COM 13
