The Physician Quality Reporting System (PQRS), the first step toward pay-for-performance, is part of a broad initiative from the federal government and private insurance companies aimed at advancing health care quality and value over volume. PQRS encourages clinicians to attend to issues such as safety, healthy lifestyles, and improvement of care coordination. Policy experts predict that PQRS will not be limited to Medicare but will be required by most third party payers in the near future. This 2-hour course will walk you through each step of the PQRS process, providing pragmatic clinical suggestions that will help you navigate the maze of regulations, provide guidance for successful participation, and ultimately improve quality of care of your patients.
