July 14, 2023 Release Highlights Copied
Practice Insights is pleased to announce updates in the application to support the Merit-Based Incentive Payment System (MIPS) and Advance Care Planning.
MIPS Quality Measures Dashboard
Starting Monday, July 17, 2023, you can view data from Q2 2023 using the Time Period drop-down on the MIPS Quality Measures Dashboard.
The dashboard has also been updated to reflect the below refinement(s) for:
| Measure | Update | Practice Impact |
|---|---|---|
| MIPS #374: Closing the Referral Loop | A refinement has been made to the numerator, which will now include the number of patients with a referral on or before October 31, for which the referring clinician received a report from the clinician to whom the patient was referred. | Practices should not see a shift in the data. |
Advance Care Planning Dashboards
Starting Monday, July 17, 2023, you can view data from Q2 2023 using the Time Period drop-down on both the Advance Care Planning Performance and Advance Care Planning Activities dashboards.
Status of Dashboard Updates for 2023
CMS releases updates to the quality measure specifications annually for the MIPS program and bi-annually for the OCM program. These measure specifications have been reviewed, and Practice Insights is working on the required technical updates to align with the revised requirements. McKesson will continue to notify practices once measures have been updated based on the current 2023 requirements. The measures listed below either have no 2023 update required or have been updated.
