Riding the Rapids of Payment Reform: Downstream Effects of Quality Reporting ...Bill Presley
In this presentation, we highlighted how quality measurement programs impact reimbursement affecting your revenue. The revenue at risk in your organization. We focused on quality programs like Value-Based Purchasing (VBP), Merit-Based Incentive Program (MIPS) and Alternative Payment Models (APM) and their impact on Part A and Part B reimbursements.
It’s no surprise that reimbursement tied to quality performance is quickly becoming a reality for hospitals and physicians. CMS’ aggressive goals aimed at increasing the percentage of Medicare payments associated with quality versus quantity can be achieved through such programs as Value-based Purchasing and MACRA. This session will cover scoring methodologies, reporting requirements, reimbursement impact, infrastructure (and other resource needs), EMR tools and tactics, and workflow modifications.
INTERNAL MEDICINE ORGANIZATIONS SURVEY INTERNISTS ON MAINTENANCE OF CERTIFICA...abimorg
A survey of internists—physicians practicing internal
medicine—whose board certification was up for renewal in December 2002 found that the most
common reasons for participating in recertification or Maintenance of Certification (MOC) were
to maintain professional image and update knowledge. The survey findings report that 59 percent
of general internists and 60 percent of subspecialists participated to maintain their professional
image. Additionally, 51 percent of general internists and 60 percent of subspecialists participated
to update their medical knowledge. http://www.abim.org/moc/

Revenue at Risk: Understanding Financial Impacts of Quality ReportingBill Presley
Jodi Frei, Northwestern Medical Center Vermont, and I co-presented at the MUSE Executive Institute on Revenue at Risk: Understanding Financial Impacts of Quality Reporting. The Executive Institute featured many amazing CXO's discussing the changing landscape of revenue cycle management and how finance, quality, and IT departments are converging on revenue cycle.
Though pay for performance is the common theme, the logistics of programs including Value Based Purchasing (VBP), Inpatient Quality Reporting (IQR), Hospital Acquired Condition (HAC) Reduction Program, Readmission Reduction, MACRA, MIPS and APMs, are very different. In this session, the specifics of each Quality Program including reporting requirements, scoring methodologies, and associated incentives and penalties will be covered. In addition, tools to track performance and quantify financial risk will be shared.
Reimbursement in this era of health care reform is challenging. We all seek success under this new normal in health care. Optimizing revenue capture in a quality reimbursement model requires acquisition of new knowledge and the use of new tools and strategies. Join us in the conversation; share your strategies; learn from others.
The Alphabet Soup of Clinical Quality Measures ReportingBill Presley
CMS is transitioning to what the they call "a new and more responsive regulatory framework" for quality reporting and reimbursement. CMS goals are "…electronic health records helping physicians, clinicians, and hospitals to deliver better care, smarter spending, and healthier people". Over the next couple years, we will see a transformation of fee for service into value-based care models driven by the VBP, Quality Payment Program, MACRA, Merit-based Incentive Payment System (MIPS) and Alternative Payment Models (APM). Healthcare organizations will no longer be motivated by implementing and meeting Meaningful Use, but instead will be driven by value-based care and risk-based payment models that focus on quality outcomes for reimbursements.
In this Education Session we will review:
• How CMS is aligning clinical quality measures (CQMs) to reduce the reporting burden for healthcare organizations and providers. We will cover the vision and goals for achieving quality alignment for CMS.
• We will dive into the following CMS reporting programs and how they interact with each other: Value-Based Purchasing (VBP), Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act (MACRA), Merit-based Incentive Payments (MIPS), Hospital Inpatient Quality Reporting (IQR), The Joint Commission (ORYX), Outpatient Quality Reporting (OQR), and Alternative Payment Models (APM).

An IT Approach to Improve the Compilation of Clinical Access Indicators and D...Editor IJCATR
The proportion of persons visiting a health facility reflects the level of access of that centre to its catchment area in terms of
Out-Patient Department (OPD) per capita. These attendances come with diagnoses which give an indication of the diseases pattern and
prevalence within the catchment area as well as patients who are insured and not insured. Though data of this nature are undisputedly crucial
to public health processes, morbidity returns from most health facilities, particularly public health facilities are generated manually making
it cumbersome and stressful. In addition, this method is error-prone and as such poses a strong threat to disease prevention, control and
information management. This research therefore uses an Information Technology approach to improve the process achieving over 90% time
gain. The Gambaga Health Centre in the East Mamprusi District was selected for the simulation
Strengthening the Health Management Information System: Pilot Assessment of D...HFG Project
The Government of India’s Ministry of Health and Family Welfare (MoHFW) places rigorous emphasis on evidence-based planning, monitoring, and supervision of public health services. Generation and use of reliable, quality health data is crucial for improving the quality of health services, especially to achieve the maternal and child health goals aimed for under the strategic reproductive, maternal, newborn, child, and adolescent health (RMNCH+A) initiative. The Health Management Information System (HMIS), envisioned as the “single window” for all public health data in the country, is thus a critical resource for the government. The MoHFW was supported by the USAID-funded Health Finance and Governance (HFG) project for third party assessment (TPA) of HMIS data quality to strengthen HMIS performance.
Using Demographic Data to Forecast Contraceptive Implant Demand Underestimate...JSI
This poster was presented by Laila Akhlaghi at the International Conference on Family Planning (ICFP) in Kigali, Rwanda in November 2018.
The Family Planning 2020 (FP2020) Initiative was launched in 2012 to address high unmet need for contraception, especially in low and middle income countries. Increasing access to long acting hormonal contraceptives (LARCs), and specifically hormonal contraceptive implants is an important strategy for achieving increases in modern contraceptive prevalence rates (mCPR).
Increasing access to contraceptive implants and ensuring demand is being met begins with accurate forecasting. This step precedes the process of supply planning, procurement, and distribution of these goods to service delivery points (SDPs) that make them available as a choice for women.
Several methods can be used in forecasting demand for contraceptives. How closely does contraceptive implant demand estimated from survey and demographics data align with actual data on insertions collected from service delivery points through eLMIS, LMIS, or DHIS II data?
The findings indicate that demographic estimates underestimate actual consumption for long-term methods. This has implications for the use of survey and demographic data (including CYPs), for forecasting demand for contraceptive implants.
The results also emphasize the importance of establishing and strengthening eLMIS systems that collect supply chain data and the use of this data for operational and management decisions to improve performance. Understanding true demand at the last mile of the supply chain, is an essential data element for managing supply chains. Without this information, supply chain managers have limited ability to increase performance and efficiency of their systems.
Understanding the Satisfaction, Perceptions, and Expectations of Clients of P...HFG Project
Taking quality health care to the farthest corners of the country is at the heart of the Government of India’s public health policy and programming. The National Health Mission’s reproductive, maternal, newborn, child and adolescent health (RMNCH+A) strategic approach underscores the need to ensure quality health care. A key thrust of the government’s reform focus has, thus, been on plugging service delivery gaps through improved, evidence-based decision making. The USAID-funded Health Finance and Governance (HFG) project supported the country’s Ministry of Health and Family Welfare (MoHFW) to yield preliminary insights into the level of patient satisfaction and utilization of public health services.
