سیاست های بهداشت و درمان بالینی در عصر جدید کیفیت

April 27th, 2016 executive notice by the US Department of Health and Human Services issued key provisions to the Medicare Access and Summary CHIP Reauthorization Act of 2015, (MACRA). MACRA replaced the 1997 Sustainable Growth Rate formula for determining Medicare reimbursement. MACRA provides a new approach in Medicare reimbursement based on value and quality care. MACRA legislation is guided by the Quality Payment Program, directing two paths for Medicare reimbursement: The Merit-based Incentive Payment System (MIPS), or the Advanced Alternative Payment Model (APM). Nurse Practitioners, require knowledge and information to prepare for MIPS and APM to begin January 1, 2017.
