Path to Value

New Goals for value-based payments and APMs in Medicare

The new Merit-based Incentive Payment System helps to link fee-for-service payments to quality and value.

The law also provides incentives for participation in Alternative Payment Models in general and bonus payments to those in the most highly advanced APMs

The Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act of 2015 (MACRA) is a bipartisan legislation signed into law on April 16, 2015.

What does Title I of MACRA do?

• Repeals the Sustainable Growth Rate (SGR) Formula

• Changes the way that Medicare rewards clinicians for value over volume

• Streamlines multiple quality programs under the new Merit Based Incentive Payments System (MIPS)

• Provides bonus payments for participation in eligible alternative payment models (APMs

MIPS changes how Medicare links performance to payment MACRA streamlines those programs into MIPS:

·         Merit-Based Incentive Payment System (MIPS)

·         Physician Quality Reporting Program (PQRS)

·         Value-Based Payment Modifier

·         Medicare HER Incentive Program
