10 MIPS Facts That Matter Most<\/h2>\n
    \n
  1. If Your Practice Volume Is Below the Minimum,
    \nYou\u2019re Not Required to Participate in MIPS<\/strong><\/p>\n
      \n
    1. Your practice is exempt from MIPS:\n
        \n
      • If your practice was paid less than $90,000 from Medicare in 2018, or<\/li>\n
      • If your practice treated fewer than 200 Medicare patients in 2018<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
          \n
        1. If Your Practice Qualifies for MIPS, You Can\u2019t Submit on Paper<\/strong>\n
            \n
          1. Qualifying paper-based practices are guaranteed to be hit with the MIPS takeback<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
              \n
            1. In 2020 You Can\u2019t Use \u201cJust Any EMR.\u201d MIPS Requires That You Use A \u201cCertified\u201d EMR<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
                \n
              1. PQRS without a certified data registry is a losing proposition<\/strong>\n
                  \n
                1. Only 5 codes can be submitted via claims-based PQRS submission vs. 6 allowed with a certified data registry<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
                    \n
                  1. \u201cQuality\u201d Represents 50%, or more of the MIPS score<\/strong>\n
                      \n
                    1. Do you know your therapists\u2019 outcomes by body region?\n
                        \n
                      • Today, many practices are focused on improving progression stats. You need to do the same, or you\u2019ll fall behind<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
                          \n
                        1. The CMS Is emphasizing interoperability and is pushing the industry toward electronic data exchange\u00a0<\/strong>\n
                            \n
                          1. Interoperability is the ability to share data, electronically, with healthcare providers and payers<\/li>\n
                          2. Most EMRs are not interoperable<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
                              \n
                            1. Small Practices That Are Excluded from MIPS Should Not Celebrate<\/strong>\n
                                \n
                              1. Referring doctors will quickly become reliant on real-time, interoperable data, and will avoid fax-based practices<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
                                  \n
                                1. Commercial Payers Are Expected to Join APMs and may participate with MIPS in the future<\/strong>\n
                                    \n
                                  1. The CMS is said to be encouraging the major commercial payers to also adopt MIPS protocols<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
                                      \n
                                    1. The MIPS Takeback Is 75% Larger Than What You\u2019re Thinking<\/strong>\n
                                        \n
                                      1. For years, the term \u201c4% takeback\u201d has been used to describe MIPS<\/li>\n
                                      2. Be aware, in 2019, the MIPS takeback is 7%<\/li>\n
                                      3. The takeback increases to 9% from there, and remember, major commercial payers will be included<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
                                          \n
                                        1. The MIPS Tsunami Is Just Beginning<\/strong>\n
                                            \n
                                          1. MIPS is designed to segregate outpatient rehab into winners and losers.<\/li>\n
                                          2. And the Losers will pay the winners<\/li>\n
