2025 MIPS Measure Initiation, Review, and/or Update to Suicide Safety Plan for Individuals with Suicidal Thoughts, Behavior, or Suicide Risk

share

2025 COLLECTION TYPE:

MIPS CLINICAL QUALITY MEASURES (CQMS)

‌MEASURE TYPE: Process – High Priority

‌Description:

Percentage of patients aged 12 years and older with suicidal ideation or behavior symptoms (based on results of a standardized assessment tool or screening tool) or increased suicide risk (based on the clinician’s evaluation or clinician-rating tool) for whom a suicide safety plan is initiated, reviewed, and/or updated in collaboration between the patient and their clinician.

‌Instructions:

This measure is to be submitted a minimum of once per performance period for patients with mental and/or substance use disorder AND suicidal thoughts, behaviors, or risk symptoms who are seen during the performance period. This measure is intended to reflect the quality of services provided for patients with suicidal ideation or behavior symptoms or are at increased risk (based on clinician’s evaluation) with whom a suicide safety plan is initiated, reviewed, or updated within 24 hours of clinical encounter and within 120 days after initiation. This measure may be submitted by Merit-based Incentive Payment System (MIPS) eligible clinicians who provided the measure- specific denominator coding.

This measure will be calculated with 2 performance rates:

  1. Percentage of patients for whom a suicide safety plan is initiated, reviewed, or updated in collaboration between the patient and their clinician (concurrent or within 24 hours of clinical encounter)
  2. Percentage of patients for whom a suicide safety plan is initiated, reviewed, or updated in collaboration between the individual and their clinician at the time the suicidal ideation, behavior or risk is identified (concurrent or within 24 hours of clinical encounter) AND reviewed and updated within 120 days after initiation.

For accountability reporting in the CMS MIPS program, the rate for Submission Criteria 2 is used for performance.

NOTE: Patient encounters for this measure conducted via telehealth (including but not limited to encounters coded with GQ, GT, 95, POS 02, POS 10) are allowable. Please note that effective January 1, 2025, while a measure may be denoted as telehealth eligible, specific denominator codes within the encounter may no longer be eligible due to changes outlined in the CY 2024 PFS Final Rule List of Medicare Telehealth Services.

‌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.

THERE ARE TWO SUBMISSION CRITERIA FOR THIS MEASURE:

  1. All patients for whom a suicide safety plan is initiated, reviewed, or updated (concurrent or within 24 hours of clinical encounter)
    AND
  2. All patients for whom a suicide safety plan is initiated, reviewed, or updated in collaboration between the individual and their clinician at the time the suicidal ideation, behavior or risk is identified (concurrent or within 24 hours of clinical encounter) (i.e., individuals who satisfy Numerator 1) AND reviewed and updated within 120 days after initiation

SUBMISSION CRITERIA 1: ALL PATIENTS FOR WHOM A SUICIDE SAFETY PLAN IS INITIATED, REVIEWED, OR UPDATED (CONCURRENT OR WITHIN 24 HOURS OF CLINICAL ENCOUNTER)

‌Denominator (Submission Criteria 1):

Patients aged 12 years and older with a mental and/or substance use disorder with suicidal ideation and/or behavior symptoms or suicide risk at a clinical encounter during the denominator identification period

Definitions:

Suicidal ideation and/or behavior symptoms – Suicidal ideation and behavior should be assessed using a standardized assessment tool such as the Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS) – ‘Screen Version’. The C-SSRS is a patient self-reported tool that enquires about wish for death, thoughts of suicide, suicidal thoughts with method without specific thoughts or intent, suicidal intent without and with specific plan, and suicide behavior. A “Yes” on the C-SSRS questions 1 or 2 indicates the need to initiate the Suicide Safety Plan. Other patient-reported assessment tools that qualify for this measure include but are not limited to: Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) – Item 9. The PHQ-9 is a routinely used scale in behavioral health and primary care. Item 9 of the instrument asks whether the patient has thoughts that they would be better off dead, or of hurting themselves. A “Yes” on PHQ-9 Item 9 indicates the need to initiate the Suicide Safety Plan.

Suicide risk based on clinician’s evaluation or a clinician-rated tool – A clinician may determine a patient at increased suicide risk by evaluation and clinical judgment or the use of a standardized tool, such as the Clinician Rating of Potential Suicide Risk (CRPSR). The CRPSR is a single item clinician-rated tool that was developed and tested during the DSM-5 Field Trials. The assessment tool includes a listing of risk factors for suicide and a description of a what very high-risk patient might look like. The clinician is asked to consider the list of risk factors and the description of a very high-risk patient in their clinical evaluation of the patient, and to rate the patient’s risk for suicide and the need for suicide prevention as part of the patient’s current clinical management. A non-zero score on the CRPSR indicates the need to initiate the Suicide Safety Plan. Other clinician rated assessment tools that qualify for this measure include but are not limited to: Suicide Assessment Five-step Evaluation & Triage (SAFE-T), SAFE-T Protocol with CSSRS (Columbia Risk & Protective Factors) Lifetime/Recent, CSSRS (Columbia Risk & Protective Factors) Lifetime/Recent.

Denominator Identification Period – The period in which individuals can have an encounter at which suicidal thoughts or behaviors are found by a standardized assessment or screening tool OR a clinician determines increased suicide risk by evaluation or the results of a clinician-rated tool. The “denominator identification period” is the 12-month window starting 4 months prior to the measurement year and ending 8 months into the measurement year (September 1 of the previous year thru August 31 of the current year).

Index Assessment – The clinical encounter when the patient first reports suicidal thoughts and/or behaviors OR is deemed at elevated suicide risk by their clinician is counted as the index assessment. If there are multiple qualifying assessments during the denominator identification period, the first qualifying assessment is counted as the index.

DENOMINATOR NOTE: *Signifies that this CPT Category I code is a non-covered service under the Medicare Part B Physician Fee Schedule (PFS). These non-covered services should be counted in the denominator population for MIPS CQMs.

OR

Patients who died during the measurement period: M1356

‌Numerator (Submission Criteria 1):

Patients for whom a completed suicide safety plan is initiated, reviewed, or updated in collaboration between the patient and their clinician at the time the suicidal ideation behavior or risk is identified (concurrent or within 24 hours of index clinical encounter), during the measurement period

Definition:

Suicide Safety Plan – A brief intervention that involves the patient with suicidal ideation, behavior or risk and their clinician working in collaboration to identify and document: a written list of warning signs, internal coping strategies the patient can use to stay safe without involving others, sources of support (including access to professional services), and ways to make their environment safe.

Numerator Options:

Performance Met: Patients who had a completed suicide safety plan initiated, reviewed or updated in collaboration with their clinician (concurrent or within 24 hours) of the index clinical encounter (M1350)

OR

Performance Not Met: Patients who did not have a completed suicide safety plan initiated, reviewed or updated in collaboration

with their clinician (concurrent or within 24 hours) of the index clinical encounter (M1353)

SUBMISSION CRITERIA 2: ALL PATIENTS FOR WHOM A SUICIDE SAFETY PLAN IS INITIATED, REVIEWED, OR UPDATED CONCURRENT WITH THE INDEX ASSESSMENT AND WITHIN 120 DAYS AFTER INITIATION

‌Denominator (Submission Criteria 2):

Patients aged 12 years and older with a mental and/or substance use disorder with suicidal ideation and/or behavior symptoms or suicide risk at a clinical encounter during the denominator identification period

Definitions:

Suicidal ideation and/or behavior symptoms – Suicidal ideation and behavior should be assessed using a standardized assessment tool such as the Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS) – ‘Screen Version’. The C-SSRS is a patient self-reported tool that enquires about wish for death, thoughts of suicide, suicidal thoughts with method without specific thoughts or intent, suicidal intent without and with specific plan, and suicide behavior. A “Yes” on the C-SSRS questions 1 or 2 indicates the need to initiate the Suicide Safety Plan. Other patient-reported assessment tools that qualify for this measure include but are not limited to: Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) – Item 9. The PHQ-9 is a routinely used scale in behavioral health and primary care. Item 9 of the instrument asks whether the patient has thoughts that they would be better off dead, or of hurting themselves. A “Yes” on PHQ-9 Item 9 indicates the need to initiate the Suicide Safety Plan.

Suicide risk based on clinician’s evaluation or a clinician-rated tool – A clinician may determine a patient at increased suicide risk by evaluation and clinical judgment or the use of a standardized tool, such as the CRPSR. The Clinician Rating of Potential Suicide Risk (CRPSR) is a single item clinician-rated tool that was developed and tested during the DSM-5 Field Trials. The assessment tool includes a listing of risk factors for suicide and a description of a what very high-risk patient might look like. The clinician is asked to consider the list of risk factors and the description of a very high-risk patient in their clinical evaluation of the patient, and to rate the patient’s risk for suicide and the need for suicide prevention as part of the patient’s current clinical management. A non-zero score on the CRPSR indicates the need to initiate the Suicide Safety Plan. Other clinician rated assessment tools that qualify for this measure include but are not limited to: Suicide Assessment Five-step Evaluation & Triage (SAFE-T), SAFE-T Protocol with CSSRS (Columbia Risk & Protective Factors) Lifetime/Recent, CSSRS (Columbia Risk & Protective Factors) Lifetime/Recent.

Denominator Identification Period – The period in which individuals can have an encounter at which suicidal thoughts or behaviors are found by a standardized assessment or screening tool OR a clinician determines increased suicide risk by evaluation or the results of a clinician-rated tool. The “denominator identification period” is the 12-month window starting 4 months prior to the measurement year and ending 8 months into the measurement year (September 1 of the previous year through August 31 of the current year).

Index Assessment – The clinical encounter when the patient first reports suicidal thoughts and/or behaviors OR is deemed at elevated suicide risk by their clinician is counted as the “index assessment”. If there are multiple qualifying assessments during the denominator identification period, the first qualifying assessment is counted as the index.

DENOMINATOR NOTE: *Signifies that this CPT Category I code is a non-covered service under the Medicare Part B Physician Fee Schedule (PFS). These non-covered services should be counted in the denominator population for MIPS CQMs.
