Dan Golder, MD, Principal Advisor, Henry Stokman, Principal, Jason Fortin, Senior Advisor, and Larry Katzovitz, Senior Advisor, Impact Advisors. This session provides an in-depth review and analysis of the calculations used to score each of the four MIPS components (Quality, Advancing Care Information, Improvement Activities, and Cost). Learn how to understand some of the complexities used in the MIPS calculations and how to leverage this knowledge to improve your MIPS composite score. Highlights include: scoring with examples for each of the four MIPS components; base scores, performance scores and bonus points; performance thresholds and their impact on MIPS scoring; and budget neutrality and the scaling factor. Part I was presented Dec. 8, 2016, and can be accessed via our teleconference library.
