2024 is 75% complete so now is crunch time for many providers participating in the MIPS program.
Many of the measures you report on are ‘Once Per Reporting Period’. That means you only need to meet the measure on one visit for each patient during 2024.
Even if you failed to meet measures prior to today, by making sure you meet the quality measure the next time the patient walks in the door, you get credit for that measure.
For Podiatry, once per reporting period measures include:
Measure 047 – Documentation of Advance Care Plan
Measure 226 – Tobacco Cessation Counseling
Measure 126 – Neurologic Evaluation of the lower extremity of the Diabetic Patient*
Measure 127 – Footwear evaluation of the Diabetic Patient*
Measure 155 – Fall Risk Plan of Care*
*- These measures are topped out and have a maximum score of 7
Even if you start now, you may have the opportunity to avoid a penalty related to your 2024 MIPS score.
