Our partnership with Physical/Occupational Therapists and Orthopedists

We understand the pressures being placed on practices. As CMS updates the Physician Fee Schedule and reimbursements are squeezed, don’t let MIPS add to the downward impact. In fact, you can use MIPS reporting to your advantage and counter some of that impact. As MIPS incentives and penalties rise, you don’t want to be on the wrong side of that equation.

Healthmonix has developed measures that specifically focus on the primary outcomes of PT and OT practices. And we have over 100,000 cases in our registry to provide benchmarking and prove our approach.

How Physical/Occupational Therapists and Orthopedists benefit from our QCDR

PTs and OTs, through our QCDR measures, have the ability to utilize evidence-based, patient-reported outcomes to participate in the MIPS program. We’ve convened some of the leading therapists in the country and have built robust, meaningful measures that have been approved by CMS, as an alternative to the less-relevant measures provided in the standard MIPS quality measure list. We help you understand these measures, feed the data from your current systems and not only benefit you from a MIPS financial standpoint, but also help you see any gaps in your practice that you can target. And if not, it validates your high standard of care.

Reduce your administrative burden of tracking measures that are indirectly associated with your scope of care, gain a higher score for the great practice that you are already performing, and leave more time for the focus on your patients.

If you're an audiologist, you know that for years the measures available in the PQRS / MIPS program have not aligned well with your practice. We’ve addressed that need. Working with a team of leading audiologists, we've developed and implemented targeted patient-focused outcome measures for the MIPS program starting in 2021. These measures can be used to report relevant metrics in the MIPS program, and in addition can be used to track and benchmark your performance outside of the program.

Measures developed address hearing loss, tinnitus, BPPV, and cochlear implants. In addition, we are continuing to develop additional measures that will further address the needs of the industry.

The audiology QCDR combines the targeted knowledge of audiology practice with the most experienced registry support. This QCDR allows you to focus on your practice while fulfilling your MIPS reporting requirement and earning an incentive from the program.

The Emergency & Acute Care Clinical Registry in collaboration with Healthmonix (EACCR) has been developed to address the specific needs of emergency medicine physicians and hospitalists. With an optimized set of QCDR measures for MIPS tracking and reporting, from all the emergency medicine and acute care registries in the U.S., the EACCR empowers hospital-based clinicians to focus on Quality and Improvement Activities directly related to the best care management for their patients.  A team of practicing physicians drives and supports the registry, enabling us to not only offer complete MIPS reporting from one of the most trusted registries in the country, but also focused support for physicians.

Benefits of the EACCR:

• Most relevant quality measures for EM physicians and hospitalists
• Streamlined integrations with your EHRs to minimize tracking and reporting efforts
• Benchmarking against others in your specialty
• Reduced penalties and increased incentives in the MIPS program
