Medicare’s new Quality Payment Program

In 2016, the DHHS released the final Medicare Quality Payment Program (QPP) rule, which is a part of the Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act of 2015 (MACRA), redefining how providers will be reimbursed for quality through either the Merit-based Incentive Payment System (MIPS) or Advanced Alternative Payment Models (APMs). The LIS plays an important role as an information system that feeds the EHR and as an essential tool to help laboratories increase efficiency and monitor their productivity as it relates to these new quality measures.
