What’s the Score with Your Physicians? Don’t Miss MIPS

Monitor Mondays

The Merit-based Incentive Payment System (MIPS) uses a composite performance score to determine if eligible physicians will receive a payment bonus, a payment penalty, or no payment adjustments. So, what’s the score for your physicians? Do they know?

During the next live edition of the long-running Monitor Mondays, Leigh Poland, vice president of coding services for AGS Health, will report on why it’s essential for all eligible clinicians to report their score to prevent a 9-percent downward adjustment for all Medicare Part B claims paid two years from the reporting year.

Broadcast segments will also include these instantly recognizable features:

• Monday Rounds: Ronald Hirsch, MD, vice president of R1 RCM, will be making his Monday Rounds.

• The RAC Report: Healthcare attorney Knicole Emanuel, partner at the law firm of Nelson Mullins, will report the latest news about auditors.

• Risky Business: Healthcare attorney David Glaser, shareholder in the law offices of Fredrikson & Byron, will join the broadcast with his trademark segment.

• Legislative Update: Kate Brantley, state legislative analyst for Zelis, will report on current healthcare legislation.

• Lead Story: Leigh Poland, vice president of coding for AGS Health, will report on the importance of physicians reporting their MIPS scores.
