Reminder: 2014 eRx Payment Adjustment Can Affect 2015 MU Payment Adjustment
• If you did not earn the 2012 eRx incentive or reported during the 6-month reporting period in 2013, you will be subject to a -2.0 percent payment adjustment in 2014
• If you are subject to the 2014 eRx payment adjustment, and you did not successfully demonstrate meaningful use to avoid the 2015 MU payment adjustment, the 2015 MU adjustment is -2.0 percent (as opposed to -1.0 percent)
• 2014 is the last year eRx payment adjustments will be applied
• Informal review requests can be submitted to [email protected] no later than February 28,2014.

Eligibility 7
• Beginning in 2014, professionals who reassign benefits to a Critical Access Hospital (CAH) that bills professional services at a facility level, such as CAH Method II billing, can now participate (in all reporting methods except for claims-based) o To do so, the CAH must include the individual provider NPI on their Institutional
(FI) claims.
• Some professionals may be eligible to participate per their specialty, but due to billing method may not be able to participate o Professionals who do not bill Medicare at an individual National Provider
Identifier (NPI) level, where the rendering provider’s individual NPI is entered on CMS-1500 type paper or electronic claims billing, associated with specific line-item services

2014 PQRS Updates 8
Emphasis on 2014 Incentive AND avoiding 2016 Payment Adjustment • New satisfactorily reporting requirements via claims, registry
and EHR to receive incentive and avoid adjustment:
9 measures across 3 National Quality Strategy domains
• Lowered percentage of patients to be reported on for some
reporting options from 80 percent to 50 percent
• Elimination of Administrative claims or the reporting of one measure for purposes of avoiding the 2016 PQRS payment adjustment
• EPs may report on ONLY three measures on 50 percent of their patients to avoid the 2016 payment adjustment (applies to only to individual claims or qualified registry reporting options)
2014 PQRS Updates
• All Measures Groups reportable via Registry Only
• Added EHR Reporting for group practices
• New Qualified Clinical Data Registry (QCDR) reporting option

Incentives and Payment Adjustments in 2014
10
• 2014 is the last year for incentives
• EPs who satisfactorily report quality-measures data for
services furnished in 2014 are:
o eligible to earn an incentive payment of 0.5 percent of the
EP's estimated total allowed charges for covered Medicare
Part B Physician Fee Schedule (PFS) services provided in
2014
o Additional 0.5 percent available for Maintenance of Certification
• 2014 is also the performance year for the 2016 PQRS
payment adjustment
o Payment Adjustment in 2016 is -2.0 percent of EP’s Part B
covered professional services under Medicare PFS
Incentives and Payment Adjustments in 2014
• EPs who are eligible for both PQRS and the EHR meaningful use (MU) program may participate in both programs and earn incentives for both
• Medicare EHR incentive payments for 2014 is based on when the individual EP first demonstrated MU:
• 2014 Incentive for EPs participating in the Medicaid MU program is either $21,250 or $8,500
If first year of MU was: 2014 MU Incentive Is (per EP):
2011 $4,000
2012 $8,000
2013 $12,000
2014 $12,000

practice to report 9 or measures covering at least 3
NQS domains for incentive purposes:
1. Patient Safety
2. Person and Caregiver-Centered Experience and
Outcomes
3. Communication and Care Coordination
4. Effective Clinical Care

How Is a Group Practice Defined? 26
• A single Tax Identification Number (TIN) with 2 or more individual EPs(as identified by Individual National Provider Identifier [NPI]) who have reassigned their billing rights to the TIN
• Once a group practice (TIN) has self-nominated or registered to participate in PQRS GPRO, the method chosen is the only PQRS submission method available to the group and all individual NPIs who bill Medicare under the group's TIN
• If an organization or eligible professional changes TINs, the
participation under the old TIN does not carry over to the new TIN, nor is it combined for final analysis
Group Practice Reporting Option (GPRO)
• Options for reporting under the Group Practice Reporting
Option (GPRO) depends on the size of the group
• Claims-based reporting option no longer available for GPRO
• All reporting periods under GPRO is 12 months

Measures Applicability Validation (MAV) Process
• EPs and groups (of all sizes) could be subject to the
MAV process if they choose:
o Individual Claims option; or
o Qualified Registry option
• MAV process initiated when:
o EP or group satisfactorily reports QDCs for only one to eight
PQRS measures across one or more domains, OR
o EP or group satisfactorily reports QDCs for nine or more
PQRS measures across less than three domains
38
Measures Applicability Validation (MAV) Process
• Eligible professionals must satisfactorily report for at least 50 percent of their eligible patients or encounters for each measure: o To receive 2014 incentive payment, CMS will analyze
claims data to validate if more measures/domains may have been applicable for reporting
o To avoid 2016 payment adjustment, if only one or two measures are satisfactorily reported, CMS will analyze claims data to validate if more measures may have been applicable for reporting
• EPs that satisfactorily report three or more measures across one or more domains will not be subject to MAV for payment adjustment purposes, but will be subject to MAV to determine if more measures/domains could have been submitted for 2014 incentive eligibility.
39
Measures Applicability Validation (MAV) Process
40
• Two-Step Process: 1. Clinical Relation/Domain Test, based on presumption:
If EP submits data for a measure, then that measure applies to her/his practice , and
If one measure in a cluster of measures related to a particular clinical topic or EP service is applicable to an EP’s practice, then other closely-related measures (measures in that same cluster) may also be applicable
2. Minimum Threshold Test
If the EP treated more than a certain number of Medicare patients with a condition where a measure applied, that EP should be accountable for submitting the QDC(s) for that measure
Common minimum threshold will not be less than 15 patients (or encounters) for the 12-month reporting period for each 2014 PQRS measure
Physician Compare Website 41
• For Groups of all size, all measures collected through the GPRO web interface will be posted on Physician Compare.

Physician Compare Website 42
• We will publicly report CG-CAHPS measures for
groups of 100 or more EPs who participate in PQRS

• We will publically report CG-CAHPS for MSSP ACOs
reporting through the GPRO web interface.
o We plan to publicly report 2014 data in CY 2015
o CMS continues to support survey data collection in 2014 for PQRS
GPROs participating via the web interface (12 summary CAHPS
survey measures)
Physician Compare Website 43
• For groups of 25 to 99 EPs, we finalized the
proposal to publicly report the CG-CAHPS
measures collected via a certified CAHPS
vendor.
o We plan to report 2014 data in CY 2015.
o CMS will not support survey data collection in
2014.
o Same 12 Summary Survey Measures for groups of
