HITEQ Resources & Events

With value-based care, providers are increasingly being asked to take on more accountability, and in some cases financial risk, for cost and quality outcomes for a defined population. This webinar aimed to help health center leadership assess whether they are investing sufficiently in the clinical and administrative infrastructure and analytics to succeed under risk-based payment.  The session addressed three key questions: 1) What data do I need and how do I get it? 2) What do I do with the data once I have it? and 3) How do I apply what I learn from the data to manage quality and costs?  The session featured health centers engaging successfully in risk-based contracts using a robust population health management system.

The CMS Medicare EHR incentive program has ended with the 2016 reporting period. Medicare eligible professionals (EPs) are now being directed to report to the Quality Payment Program (QPP), which most health center providers are not eligible for. Similarly, while the Medicaid EHR incentive program is ongoing, the enrollment period has ended. In this complex environment, what are the options for health center providers?

This webinar summarized the latest CMS guidelines, and clarified the options and requirements for providers in the 2017 EHR incentive program reporting period and beyond.
