Providers must satisfy requirements in multiple CMS regulatory programs, such as the Merit-Based Incentive Payment System, Meaningful Use, and Inpatient Quality Reporting programs. Healthcare organizations face stiff penalties and reductions in their reimbursements if they do not report successfully. At the same time, high performance enables organizations to potentially earn incentive dollars. This presentation provides a framework and actionable insights to operationalize an IT-driven quality reporting strategy.

This presentation will cover:

• Successful strategies to reduce reporting burden and maximize CMS incentives.
• A sustainable framework for a coordinated, IT-driven quality reporting initiative.
