The CMS legacy programs – EHR incentive program (Meaningful Use) for eligible professionals; Physician Quality Reporting System (PQRS); and Physician Value-based Payment Modifier (VM) are transitioning to the Quality Payment Program (QPP) in 2017.  The QPP is multifaceted program composed of four performance categories – Quality; Improvement Activities; Advancing Care Information; and Cost.  Please join Lake Superior Quality Innovation Network’s (QIN) presenters as they highlight what eligible clinicians and their organizations need to do to be successful in this transition year and to prepare for future reporting years.

Audience

The webinar is intended for practices and clinicians actively engaged in the Meaningful Use program who are familiar with the Modified Stage 2 and Stage 3 objectives and those who are preparing for the transition to the Merit-Based Incentive Payment System – EHR Incentive Program / MU Project Managers; PQRS Managers/ Leads; Clinic Managers; Informatics Specialists; Clinicians; Quality Improvement Managers and those who administer these programs on behalf of their organizations
