Performance Measures
Practices/hospitals participating in the registry will receive performance calculations for all ImageGuide performance measures. Performance will be provided at the practice/hospital level, office location level, and for each individual participating physician.
CMS Merit-Based Incentive Payment System (MIPS):
Physicians are required to report at least six measures for the quality category of MIPS. Of the six measures, at least one must be an outcome or high priority measure.
