Stay up to date with the latest news regarding MACRA and MIPS.
Instructions
This measure is to be submitted each time an operative procedure listed in the denominator is performed during the performance period. There is no diagnosis associated with this measure. This measure may be submitted by Merit-based Incentive Payment System (MIPS) eligible clinicians who perform the quality actions described in the measure based on the services provided and the measure-specific denominator coding.
NOTE: Include only patients that have procedures through November 30th of the performance period. This will allow the evaluation of at least 30 days after the procedure within the performance period.
Measure Submission Type:
Measure data may be submitted by individual MIPS eligible clinicians, groups, or third party intermediaries. The listed denominator criteria are used to identify the intended patient population. The numerator options included in this specification are used to submit the quality actions as allowed by the measure. The quality-data codes listed do not need to be submitted by MIPS eligible clinicians, groups, or third party intermediaries that utilize this modality for submissions; however, these codes may be submitted for those third party intermediaries that utilize Medicare Part B claims data. For more information regarding Application Programming Interface (API), please refer to the Quality Payment Program (QPP) website.

Numerator
Unplanned return to the operating room for a surgical procedure, for any reason, within 30 days of the principal operative procedure
Numerator Instructions:
INVERSE MEASURE – A lower calculated performance rate for this measure indicates better clinical care or control. The “Performance Not Met” numerator option for this measure is the representation of the better clinical quality or control. Submitting that numerator option will produce a performance rate that trends closer to 0%, as quality increases. For inverse measures, a rate of 100% means all of the denominator eligible patients did not receive the appropriate care or were not in proper control.
NUMERATOR NOTE: This measure intent is to capture patients who go back to the operating room within 30 days for a follow-up procedure based on complications of the principal (denominator eligible) operative procedure. Examples: Breast biopsies (19101) with return for re-excisions or insertion of port-a-cath for chemotherapy would not be considered an unplanned return to the operating room for a surgical procedure. If this patient had an open, incisional biopsy of breast tissue (19101) and subsequently had an appendectomy performed this would not be considered an unplanned return to the operating room for a surgical procedure. The return to the OR may occur at any hospital or surgical facility.
Numerator Options:
Performance Met:
Unplanned return to the operating room for a surgical procedure, for complications of the principal operative procedure, within 30 days of the principal operative procedure (G9308)
OR
Performance Not Met:
No return to the operating room for a surgical procedure for complications of the principal operative procedure within 30 days of the principal operative procedure (G9307)
