MIPS

REGCLR1 measures the improvement in function of the patients with a diagnosis of Heel Pain that have a reduction in pain after an intervention. No specific treatment is required to meet this measure; it simply requires a significant decrease in the patient's pain as a result of your intervention. Treatments may include custom orthotics, prefabricated orthotics, injections for heel pain, night splints, stretching, and physical therapy.

MIPS consists of 4 components Quality Reporting, Promoting interoperability, Improvement Activities and Cost. Another way to participate in MIPS is through an MVP. When reporting traditional MIPS you can report on individual measure or you can report a MIPS Value Pathway (MVP). Each year CMS updates the MIPS program.

2024 is winding down and we should be getting ready to report our 2024 performance to CMS. A common question that keeps popping up is: “Am I required to report MIPS for 2024?”

The MIPS automatic EUC policy doesn’t apply to MIPS eligible clinicians participating in MIPS as a group, subgroup, virtual group, or Alternative Payment Model (APM) Entity. However, groups, virtual groups, and APM Entities can request reweighting through the EUC Exception application. Subgroups will inherit any reweighting approved for their affiliated group; they can’t request reweighting independent of their affiliated group’s status.

Any bonus or penalty for your 2023 reporting period will be reflected in your 2024 Medicare Payments. CMS has released the scores and and payments for 2025 payment year.

In about 2 months you need to report your quality metrics to CMS for the 2024 performance year. That means you only have 2 months left to make sure you meet the quality measures and optimize your score.
