Why Should You Attend:

Based on current trends over 600,000 clinicians in the U.S. will be included in the MIPS in 2019. MIPS Performance Scores in 2019 will be used by CMS to determine potential payment adjustments to all Part B Medicare payments in the 2021 calendar year that will range from -7% to +7% or higher. CMS will also make MIPS performance scores available to the public.

The Bipartisan Budget Act of 2018 contained several legislative provisions for the Merit-based Incentive Payment System (MIPS) that will impact practices starting in 2019. This presentation will review these changes in the context of the MIPS and discuss strategic options for MIPS performance in 2019.
