Physician Quality Reporting System - PQRS

"PQRS gives participating EPs the opportunity to assess the quality of care they are providing to their patients, helping to ensure that patients get the right care at the right time. By reporting PQRS quality measures, providers also can quantify how often they are meeting a particular quality metric. Using the feedback report provided by CMS, EPs can compare their performance on a given measure with their peers."

Physician Quality Reporting System (PQRS)

Measures codes contain information about Physician Quality Reporting System (PQRS) quality measures, including detailed specifications and related release notes for the individual PQRS quality measures and measures groups and other measures-related documentation needed by individual eligible professionals for reporting the PQRS measures through claims or qualified registry-based reporting.

The PQRS measure documents for the current program year may be different from the PQRS measure documents for a prior year. Eligible professionals are responsible for ensuring that they are using the PQRS measure documents for the correct program year.

At a minimum, the following factors should be considered when selecting measures for reporting:

• Clinical conditions usually treated
• Types of care typically provided – e.g., preventive, chronic, acute
• Settings where care is usually delivered – e.g., office, emergency department (ED), surgical   suite
• Quality improvement goals for 2014
• Other quality reporting programs in use or being considered

• 2014 Physician Quality Reporting System (PQRS) Implementation Guide – Provides guidance about how to select measures for reporting, how to read and understand a measure specification, and outlines the various reporting methods available for 2014 PQRS. The Implementation Guide also details how to implement claims-based reporting of measures to facilitate satisfactory reporting of quality-data codes by eligible professionals.
