MACRA
Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act

MACRA, or the Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act, significantly changed how Medicare reimbursed clinicians. Stressing "value over volume," MACRA established the Quality Payment Program (QPP), unifying existing quality reporting programs and creating two paths for eligible clinicians; Alternative Payment Models (APMs) or Merit-Based Incentive Payments System ( MIPS).

MIPS compares four factors of a clinician's practice.

  • Quality of care
  • Cost of care provided
  • Promotion of Interoperability
  • Improvement Activities

MACRA

The Transition from MIPS to MVPs

The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) finalized the MIPS Value Pathways (MVP) framework in 2020 to further streamline MIPS.

MVPs encompass quality measures like patient population, outcome, or other high-priority achievement, cost measures relevant to the specific condition they address, and the specialty field of medicine. To qualify for MVP participation, practices are also required to sustain a foundational layer of health measures targeted to their patient population and promote the interoperability of performance metrics.

While, its full implementation was delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic., 2023 reporting period is an opportunity for voluntary participation in MVPs as an alternative to MIPS.

The Transition from MIPS to MVPs

The Goals of MVPs
Why They Are the Future of MIPS

Among other things, MVPs are intended to reduce the administrative burden placed on physicians and their staff. MVPs streamline the multiple MIPS programs further and can result in payment bonuses to eligible Alternative Payment Models (APM) participants.

Participation is currently limited to certain specialties, but the program will be expanded to replace conventional MIPS reporting.

The Goals of MVPs

Essential Changes in MIPS and MVPs
Beginning in 2023

Beginning in 2023, seven MVPs will be eligible for voluntary participation in a MIPS pathway. Many eligible clinicians see the MIPS program as a cumbersome. With MVPs, CMS has taken a giant leap towards simplifying MIPS reporting for providers by creating seven unique pathways that cater to medical specialties, medical condition, or episode of care, making it easier for eligible clinicians to participate in MIPS and achieve high scores.

Another significant change to be aware of is the transition away from positive payment adjustments through MIPS. Also implemented this year, payment adjustments will only decrease the amount of reimbursement paid by as much as 9%. A practice that bills $1.5 million in Medicare annually can potentially lose $135,000 in restitution.
