We'll explore everything from understanding the basics of MIPS to implementing effective strategies for data collection and reporting. By the end of this guide, you'll have a clear roadmap for success in MIPS, empowering you to focus on what matters most: providing exceptional care to your patients. 1. Understand the Basics of MIPS Before diving into the intricacies of MIPS, it's crucial to have a solid grasp of its fundamental components. MIPS is a performance-based payment system that evaluates eligible clinicians across four key categories: Quality, Promoting Interoperability, Improvement Activities, and Cost. Each of these categories contributes to your overall MIPS score, which ultimately determines your payment adjustments. The Quality category focuses on the measures you report to demonstrate the quality of care provided to your patients. This could include metrics such as patient safety, care coordination, and clinical outcomes. It's essential to choose measures that align with your practice's specialties and areas of focus. Promoting Interoperability, formerly known as Advancing Care Information, emphasizes the use of certified electronic health record (EHR) technology to improve patient engagement and care coordination. This category encourages the secure exchange of health information and the use of e-prescribing. Improvement Activities showcase your efforts to enhance clinical practice or care delivery. These activities... --- > Enhance MIPS performance for dental practices with strategies to optimize reporting, compliance, and reimbursements in dentistry. - Published: 2024-08-01 - Modified: 2024-12-09 - URL: https://triumphealth.com/mips-for-dentists/ MIPS for Dentists In this comprehensive guide, we'll explore what MIPS means for dentists, how it affects your practice, and most importantly, how you can use it to your advantage. Whether you're a seasoned professional or just starting out, understanding MIPS is essential for the health of your practice and your patients. So, let's dive in and discover how you can make MIPS work for you, not against you. 1. What is MIPS and Why Should Dentists Care? MIPS, or the Merit-based Incentive Payment System, is a quality payment program introduced by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS). It's designed to reward healthcare providers, including dentists, for delivering high-quality, cost-effective care. But why should you, as a dentist, care about MIPS? Well, it directly impacts your bottom line. Depending on your performance, MIPS can either increase or decrease your Medicare reimbursements. In a competitive healthcare landscape, this can make a significant difference to your practice's financial health. Moreover, MIPS isn't just about money. It's about improving patient care. By participating in MIPS, you're contributing to a larger effort to enhance healthcare quality across the nation. This can lead to better outcomes for your patients and increased satisfaction with your services. 2. The Four Performance Categories of MIPS MIPS evaluates healthcare providers across four key performance categories. Understanding these categories is crucial for success in the program. The first category is Quality. This measures the quality of care you provide based on certain performance measures. For dentists, this might... --- > Improve MIPS reporting success with 7 actionable tips for nurse practitioners to boost performance and financial outcomes. - Published: 2024-08-01 - Modified: 2024-11-27 - URL: https://triumphealth.com/7-essential-tips-for-nurse-practitioners-to-excel-in-mips-reporting/ 7 Essential Tips for Nurse Practitioners to Excel in MIPS Reporting As a Nurse Practitioner, you're committed to providing top-notch patient care. But in today's healthcare landscape, that's just part of the equation. The Merit-based Incentive Payment System (MIPS) has become a crucial aspect of your practice, directly impacting your reimbursements and professional standing. This guide will walk you through seven key strategies to not just meet MIPS requirements, but to truly excel in your reporting. 1. Understand the MIPS Categories MIPS evaluates your performance across four categories: Quality, Promoting Interoperability, Improvement Activities, and Cost. Each category carries different weights: Quality: 30% Promoting Interoperability: 25% Improvement Activities: 15% Cost: 30% Familiarizing yourself with these categories and their respective measures is crucial. For instance, the Quality category includes over 200 measures, allowing you to choose those most relevant to your practice. By selecting measures where you excel, you can significantly boost your overall MIPS score. 2. Leverage Your EHR System Your Electronic Health Record (EHR) system is more than just a digital filing cabinet – it's a powerful tool for MIPS success. Many EHR systems offer built-in MIPS reporting features that can automate data collection and submission. Take the time to explore these capabilities and ensure you're utilizing them to their full potential. For example, some EHRs can track quality measures in real-time, allowing you to monitor your performance throughout the year and make adjustments as needed. This proactive approach can lead to substantial improvements in your MIPS score. 3.

But fear not! This guide will equip you with seven practical strategies to not only meet MIPS requirements but excel in your performance and potentially increase your reimbursements. Whether you're new to MIPS or looking to improve your score, these tips will help you streamline your approach and focus on what matters most. 1. Understand Your Reporting Options Before diving into MIPS reporting, it's crucial to know your options. As a Nurse Practitioner, you can report as an individual or as part of a group practice. Individual reporting allows for more control over your performance, while group reporting can distribute the workload and potentially improve overall scores. According to a 2022 CMS report, 79% of eligible clinicians participated in MIPS as part of a group, highlighting the popularity of this option. Evaluate your practice structure and performance metrics to determine which approach aligns best with your goals. 2. Focus on High-Weight Quality Measures Quality measures account for a significant portion of your MIPS score. To maximize your impact, concentrate on high-weight measures that are relevant to your practice. For example, if you specialize in diabetes management, measures like "Hemoglobin A1c Poor Control" carry more weight and directly reflect your expertise. Analyze your patient population and select 3-4 measures where you can demonstrate exceptional performance.

Many providers underestimate the impact of non-reporting, but the consequences can be far-reaching and severe. This article delves into five key penalties you could face by neglecting your MIPS reporting obligations, offering you the knowledge to safeguard your practice's future. 1. Substantial Financial Penalties The most immediate and tangible consequence of failing to report MIPS is a significant financial hit. The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) can impose a penalty of up to 9% on your Medicare Part B payments. For a practice billing $1,000,000 annually to Medicare, this could translate to a staggering $90,000 loss. Moreover, these penalties are cumulative year-over-year, potentially creating a snowball effect that could severely impact your practice's financial stability. 2. Missed Opportunities for Bonuses Not only does non-reporting lead to penalties, but it also means forfeiting potential bonuses. MIPS is designed as a budget-neutral program, which means that the penalties collected from non-compliant providers are redistributed as bonuses to high-performing ones. By not participating, you're essentially leaving money on the table that could have been reinvested in your practice, used for staff training, or allocated towards improving patient care. 3. Damage to Professional Reputation In today's digital age, transparency in healthcare is more important than ever. CMS... --- > Discover 7 key strategies to simplify provider re-credentialing, ensuring efficiency and compliance in healthcare practices. - Published: 2024-08-01 - Modified: 2025-01-22 - URL: https://triumphealth.com/7-essential-strategies-for-streamlining-provider-re-credentialing/ 7 Essential Strategies for Streamlining Provider Re-credentialing As a healthcare provider, you know that re-credentialing is a critical process to maintain your ability to practice and serve patients. However, it can often feel like a time-consuming and complex task. This guide will walk you through seven key strategies to simplify your re-credentialing process, saving you time and reducing stress. By implementing these tactics, you'll be better prepared for your next re-credentialing cycle and can focus more on what really matters – providing excellent patient care. 1. Stay Organized with a Digital Credentialing Management System In today's digital age, relying on paper files or basic spreadsheets for credentialing management is outdated and inefficient. Invest in a robust digital credentialing management system to streamline your re-credentialing process. These systems can automatically track expiration dates, send reminders, and store all necessary documents in one secure location. For instance, the CAQH ProView system, used by over 1. 4 million healthcare providers, allows you to enter your information once and share it with multiple organizations. This significantly reduces the time spent on paperwork and minimizes the risk of errors or missing information. 2. Set Up Automatic Reminders Re-credentialing deadlines can sneak up on you, especially when you're busy with patient care. Implement a system of automatic reminders to stay ahead of expiration dates for licenses, certifications, and other crucial documents. Many credentialing management systems offer this feature, but you can also use calendar apps or email reminders. Set multiple reminders at different intervals – for... --- > Learn the 7 major impacts of improper provider credentialing and how they affect healthcare operations, compliance, and reimbursement. - Published: 2024-08-01 - Modified: 2025-01-23 - URL: https://triumphealth.com/7-critical-consequences-of-improper-provider-credentialing-in-healthcare/ 7 Critical Consequences of Improper Provider Credentialing in Healthcare As a healthcare provider, ensuring proper credentialing is paramount to maintaining the integrity of your practice and the safety of your patients. Yet, many overlook the severe repercussions that can arise from improper credentialing. This article delves into seven critical consequences that underscore why meticulous credentialing should be at the forefront of every healthcare organization's priorities. 1. Patient Safety Risks Improper credentialing can directly impact patient safety. When healthcare providers practice without proper verification of their qualifications, skills, and experience, patients are exposed to potential harm. For instance, a study by the National Practitioner Data Bank (NPDB) revealed that 33% of adverse actions against healthcare providers were due to issues that could have been identified through proper credentialing. This underscores the crucial role of thorough credentialing in safeguarding patient well-being. 2. Legal Liabilities Healthcare organizations face significant legal risks when employing improperly credentialed providers. If a patient experiences harm due to the actions of an unqualified practitioner, the organization can be held liable for negligent credentialing. These lawsuits can be costly, with settlements often reaching millions of dollars. Moreover, the legal process can damage the organization's reputation, leading to long-term consequences beyond the immediate financial impact. 3. Financial Losses Improper credentialing can lead to substantial financial losses. Insurance companies may deny claims for services provided by improperly credentialed practitioners, leaving healthcare organizations to absorb the costs. Additionally, regulatory bodies can impose hefty fines for non-compliance with credentialing standards. The American Medical... --- > Streamline your payer enrollment process with TriumpHealth.

Payer enrollment, also known as provider credentialing, is the process by which healthcare providers apply to join insurance networks. It's a crucial step that allows you to accept patients with various insurance plans and receive reimbursement for your services. The importance of payer enrollment cannot be overstated. It's not just about paperwork – it's about expanding your patient base and ensuring a steady stream of revenue for your practice. When you're enrolled with multiple payers, you open your doors to a wider range of patients, increasing your potential for growth and success. Moreover, being in-network with various insurance companies can make your practice more attractive to patients. Many individuals prefer to seek care from providers who are in their insurance network to minimize out-of-pocket expenses. By enrolling with multiple payers, you're making your services more accessible and affordable to a larger population. Lastly, payer enrollment is often a legal requirement. Many states mandate that healthcare providers be properly credentialed before they can treat patients or bill for services. Failing to complete the enrollment process could result in denied claims, delayed payments, or even legal issues. The Payer Enrollment Process The payer enrollment process can be broken down into several key steps. While the exact requirements may vary depending on the insurance company and your specific field of practice, the general outline remains consistent. First, you'll need to gather all necessary documentation. This typically includes your medical license, DEA... --- > Ensure compliance and faster reimbursements with expert healthcare credentialing services.

Third-party credentialing organizations play a crucial role in validating your qualifications and ensuring patient safety. Understanding how to navigate these relationships effectively can streamline your career progress and enhance your professional standing. This guide outlines seven key strategies to help you work seamlessly with credentialing bodies and maintain your competitive edge in the healthcare industry. 1. Stay Informed About Relevant Credentialing Bodies Keeping abreast of the credentialing landscape is vital for healthcare providers. Different specialties often require specific certifications, and staying informed about these requirements can prevent last-minute scrambles or missed opportunities. For instance, the American Board of Medical Specialties (ABMS) oversees 24 member boards that certify physicians in various specialties. Regularly check their websites and subscribe to their newsletters to stay updated on any changes in credentialing requirements or processes. 2. Maintain Meticulous Documentation Credentialing organizations rely heavily on documentation to verify your qualifications. Develop a system to organize and update your credentials regularly. This should include your medical school diploma, residency certificates, state medical licenses, board certifications, and continuing education credits. According to a survey by the National Association of Medical Staff Services (NAMSS), 85% of credentialing professionals cite incomplete applications as the top reason for delays in the credentialing process. By keeping your documents well-organized and readily available, you can significantly expedite the credentialing process. 3.

MIPS evaluates clinicians based on quality, cost, interoperability, and improvement activities, directly influencing Medicare reimbursement rates. Failure to meet MIPS requirements can lead to substantial financial penalties – jeopardizing a practice’s revenue and long-term sustainability.

Schedule a Consultation MIPS Reputational Impact Triumphealth helps healthcare organizations improve patient trust and maximize medicare incentives by excelling in MIPS performance. Schedule a Consultation About What Do We Do Triump Health Customers The Merit-based Incentive Payment System (MIPS) is a pivotal component of Medicare's Quality Payment Program, designed to incentivize healthcare providers to deliver high-quality, efficient care. Beyond its financial implications, MIPS significantly influences the reputation of medical practices. Public Reporting and Patient Perception MIPS performance scores are publicly accessible through platforms like the Physician Compare website. This transparency allows patients to assess and compare providers based on their MIPS scores, directly impacting patient choice. A high MIPS score can enhance a practice's reputation, attracting more patients, while a low score may deter potential patients. Reputational Consequences The reputational impacts of MIPS scores are attached to a clinician, even if they change organizations or practices. Every historical MIPS score earned by a clinician becomes a permanent part of the publicly reported record maintained by CMS, effectively making MIPS scores an increasingly significant portion of a clinician’s resume. Optimize Your MIPS Performance with TriumpHealth Your reputation matters, and engaging with MIPS is more than just compliance – it’s a strategic advantage. With TriumpHealth’s expert MIPS Consulting Services, you can boost patient trust, and maximize reimbursements while staying fully compliant.   Contact TriumpHealth today on 888-747-3836 x0 or email sales@triumphealth. com... --- > Kickstart your medical practice start up with TriumpHealth's specialized billing services.

Cardiothoracic surgeons perform various procedures, including coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), heart valve repair or replacement, heart transplantation, lung transplantation, and thoracic aortic surgery. What is Endovascular surgery? Endovascular surgery focuses on minimally invasive procedures to treat vascular conditions, primarily involving blood vessels outside the heart and brain.

These procedures are performed by navigating instruments through the blood vessels to the targeted site. Let TriumpHealth Take Care of Your Cardiothoracic and Endovascular Billing Needs!

S. As demand for timely, quality care grows, so does the need to ensure PA's are empowered to practice at the top of their license. However, the scope and efficiency of their work is directly influenced by the legal frameworks in their state, known as PA practice environments. At TriumpHealth, we aim to help practices understand how these regulations affect care delivery and how provider credentialing plays a critical role in unlocking a PA’s potential. What Is a PA Practice Environment? A PA practice environment refers to the state-level laws and regulations that define how Physician Assistants can work, including whether they need close supervision, what kind of collaboration is mandated, and how much autonomy they have in patient care. These rules impact how quickly PA's can respond to patient needs and how efficiently healthcare teams can operate. To provide clarity, the American Academy of PA's (AAPA) categorizes each state’s PA practice environment into four levels: 1. Optimal: PA's can practice to the full extent of their education, training, and experience. Collaboration is determined at the practice level without state-imposed administrative burdens. 2. Advanced: PA's can fully utilize their training but must meet specific administrative requirements such as collaboration agreements or written protocols mandated by the state. 3.

Understand What Is a Targeted Review A “Targeted Review” allows clinicians, groups, or APM entities to request CMS revisit their 2026 MIPS payment adjustment calculation based on 2024 performance data. This process is limited to score/calculation errors, such as wrong TIN/NPI submissions or incorrect reweighting – not general scoring methodology concerns. 2. Know the Valid and Invalid Review Reasons Valid Issues Include: Data submitted under the wrong TIN or NPI Missed eligibility for category reweighting or hardship exceptions Denominator reductions not applied Misinformation on APM/QP or virtual group status Invalid Reasons Include: Disagreements with benchmarks or scoring methodology Requests for clarifications, not corrections General policy misunderstandings 3. Timing & Deadlines For the 2024 performance year / 2026 payment year, the Targeted Review window typically opens immediately after CMS releases final performance feedback, and lasts for at least 60 days.

Without a strategic approach, these challenges can impact patient access, cash flow, and compliance. In this blog, we explore common pitfalls in credentialing and billing for eye care organizations and practical ways to overcome them. The Credentialing Maze: A Significant Hurdle Common Credentialing Challenges Medicare Certification Delays for Eye Surgery Centers (ASCs) Obtaining initial ASC Medicare certification can take 4 to 9 months and involves compliance with CMS Conditions for Coverage (42 CFR Part 416). Without this certification, surgery centers cannot bill Medicare or even some commercial payers. Many eye centers underestimate the preparation required. Dual Credentialing for MDs and ODs Ophthalmology practices often employ both ophthalmologists (MD/DO) and optometrists (OD). Credentialing rules and payer participation policies differ for each provider type, adding complexity. Vision vs. Medical Payer Credentialing Vision plans (VSP, EyeMed, Davis Vision, etc. ) require separate credentialing workflows from medical payers (Medicare, BCBS, UHC, Aetna). Many practices struggle to manage both tracks effectively. Facility Licensing and State Requirements ASCs must meet state-specific licensing and accreditation requirements (e. g. Joint Commission, AAAHC, AAAASF), in addition to Medicare’s Conditions for Coverage – a regulatory puzzle that can delay certification.

Timely and accurate MIPS reporting is not merely a regulatory requirement; it is integral to a healthcare provider's operational success and reputation. Why Timely MIPS Reporting Matters Financial Implications Delays in MIPS reporting can lead to substantial financial penalties. The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) may impose a penalty of up to 9% on Medicare Part B reimbursements for non-compliance. For practices with significant Medicare billing, this can translate into considerable revenue loss. Impact on Reputation CMS publicly shares MIPS scores on platforms like Physician Compare, as well as third-party sites such as HealthGrades and Yelp . Low scores or non-participation can tarnish a provider's reputation, potentially affecting patient trust and referral rates. Operational Efficiency Timely reporting ensures that practices can identify and address care gaps promptly, leading to improved patient outcomes and streamlined operations. It also facilitates accurate benchmarking and informed decision-making within the healthcare system. Consequences of Delayed MIPS Reporting 1. Financial Penalties: As mentioned, up to a 9% reduction in Medicare reimbursements can significantly impact a practice's bottom line. 2. Reputational Damage: Publicly available low MIPS scores can deter potential patients and partners. 3.

What is a MIPS Targeted Review? A MIPS Targeted Review is a formal process through which eligible clinicians or groups can request CMS to review their final MIPS performance feedback and associated payment adjustment if they believe there was an error in calculation or data attribution. It is not an appeal of MIPS program requirements, but rather a review for potential data processing or scoring inaccuracies that could impact your Medicare reimbursement. 2. When Can You Request a Targeted Review? CMS opens the Targeted Review window annually after releasing Final MIPS Performance Feedback – typically in July for the preceding performance year. For example: 2024 MIPS performance feedback is expected in July 2025 Targeted Review request period is open from July through early September 2025 (dates may vary slightly) 3. Why Would You Submit a MIPS Targeted Review? There are several valid and CMS-recognized scenarios in which a Targeted Review is warranted. These typically fall into categories related to eligibility, data accuracy, scoring, or reweighting errors. Below is a more in-depth explanation of each common reason: A. Data Submission Errors by Third-Party Vendors Sometimes, clinicians rely on EHRs, Qualified Registries, QCDRs, billing companies, or clearinghouses to submit MIPS data on their behalf.

Perhaps even more daunting than the medical complexities is the business side of the practice, particularly the provider credentialing process. For the uninitiated, attempting to negotiate the labyrinthine path of insurance credentialing can quickly become an exercise in frustration. Every step in the process holds significant weight — from understanding and completing the necessary paperwork to maintaining precise documentation and meeting the stringent timelines set by various insurance companies. Despite its complexities, credentialing is non-negotiable. A new practice requires time, patience, and attention to detail to serve patients and secure vital revenue from payers.

Our team of skilled professionals offers a wide range of healthcare revenue cycle management services, including provider credentialing, coding audits, claims management, payer follow-up, and financial reporting & analysis to help reduce costs and maximize reimbursements. The Challenges of In-House Medical Billing and RCM Healthcare organizations face numerous challenges when it comes to managing medical billing and revenue cycle management in-house. One of the main ones is staffing shortages, which can significantly affect a medical practice’s revenue generation and patient experience.

Schedule a Consultation Revenue Cycle Management (RCM) is an essential component of the medical practice or healthcare organization, and it encompasses the management of financial transactions between patients, providers, and insurance companies. RCM is a complex and time-consuming process that requires expertise and specialized knowledge of the medical specialty. As a result, many medical practices and healthcare organizations outsource their RCM services to third-party service providers. Typically, for a successfully running solo medical practice these services can cost between $3,000 and $6,000 per month. This cost depends on size of the practice or facility, the type of services rendered, and the number of patients treated. Usually, the RCM cost is a fixed fee calculated as a percentage of net collections generated from the claims adjudicated by the payers. In this blog, we will explore the vital factors that can impact the cost of healthcare revenue cycle management (RCM) services. Some of these factors include: Scope of Services The more comprehensive the RCM services required, the higher the cost is likely to be. For example, if a healthcare provider needs assistance with everything from insurance verification, prior-authorization, to claims management, coding validation, AR follow-up, denial management and financial reporting, the cost will be higher than if they only need help with claims management. Size of the Healthcare Organization The size of the healthcare organization plays a significant role in determining the cost. For example, a large hospital system with multiple locations and specialties will... --- > Learn the importance of medical credentialing services to support high-quality patient care & uphold healthcare standards for professionals. - Published: 2023-03-10 - Modified: 2025-03-13 - URL: https://triumphealth.com/blogs/the-importance-of-medical-credentialing-services/ - Categories: All The Importance of Medical Credentialing Services Schedule a Consultation The Importance of Medical Credentialing Services Medical credentialing services verify healthcare providers' qualifications, ensuring doctors, nurses, and allied health professionals are licensed and qualified.

When sending applications to become an in-network provider with a payer, it’s important to remember internal processes. These processes must take place to credential you properly and make you available and visible to covered patients. Keep in mind that governmental insurance plans like Medicare, Medicaid, and CHIP have more tedious processes than commercial insurances like Blue Cross Blue Shield, Cigna, and United Healthcare. This is due to the extra liability that governmental plans have regarding their patients. Each provider and practice is thoroughly verified to ensure compliance before being allowed into the payer network. Below are the steps and average timeline taken by insurance companies to completely credential a provider into their network. Send a Provider Interest Form Expect a response within 10-15 days on whether the payer is accepting new providers in that region.

As a result, providers have had to adapt to provide care to their patients and continue maximizing their revenue. One way many providers have evolved throughout this trying time is by implementing the use of telemedicine throughout their practices. Telemedicine in healthcare is an effective means of providing remote patient care using the latest telecommunication technologies. This includes using interactive audio and video telecommunications between the patient and the healthcare provider. There are multiple options when incorporating telemedicine in healthcare into your practice, and each may target a different set of specific needs. One way to implement telemedicine practices is via your patient portal. A telemedicine option may be built into your patient portal and integrated into your EHR workflow. This option is beneficial because most patients are familiar with the patient portal, so the experience is efficient and hassle-free. Another option for implementing telemedicine practices is utilizing an EHR-integrated application. This involves using a third-party application that allows access to patient information, telemedicine sessions, and more. This is beneficial due to the ability to access scheduling and patient information, which increases providers' efficiency. The third option for implementing telemedicine practices is a standalone solution. With this option, your EHR would be used for scheduling, documentation, and billing; the telemedicine solution would only facilitate patient communication.

However, you can avoid or prepare for certain situations in advance to create a smoother credentialing experience. On average, provider credentialing has taken 120-150 days during the COVID-19 pandemic. Delays often increase when the necessary documentation is incomplete or submitted late. You can avoid these common issues by following the tips below. 1. Respond Promptly to Consultant Requests Credentialing requires teamwork, so respond to your credentialing consultant's requests quickly. Delays in requesting documentation will affect your credentialing timeline, leading to slower approvals. 2. Keep Business Documents Consistent Ensure that all legal documents—incorporation papers, bank account details, and bank letters—use the same legal business name and address. Even minor inconsistencies, like spacing or punctuation errors, can flag an application for denial and cause delays. 3. Keep CAQH Profiles Updated and Accurate Update each provider's CAQH profile regularly to maintain accuracy and attest to it on time. This step prevents the need for corrections later on and speeds up approvals. 4. Prepare for Unique Scenarios While we work to anticipate the information payers may request, unique scenarios sometimes arise. Occasionally, payers may request additional information to complete your enrollment. Staying prepared for these requests can help prevent further delays. 5.

Most healthcare practices assign contract negotiation to their practice manager or administrator. However, even experienced managers may not realize their practice has more bargaining power than assumed. Knowing when contracts renew and when payers require notification is crucial for successfully negotiating payer contracts. Reviewing contracts and noting important dates is critical to avoid missing them. Although it sounds simple, providers can easily overlook renewal dates with many contracts. Keeping up with these dates requires knowing where to save payer contracts for easy access. Without readily available agreements, you won’t know when to negotiate. Next, perform a payer reimbursement analysis on essential services or frequently used CPT codes. Calculate the revenue generated from specific CPT codes and compare it to practice costs. Identifying payers that pay lower than contracted amounts for CPT codes helps determine revenue loss. This process lets you understand which payer contracts to review and where to negotiate for profit. Thirdly, the contract language and terms must be closely reviewed, especially the evergreen clauses. These clauses automatically renew the contract unless you provide a termination notice before the term ends. Always negotiate a clause that allows contract termination with a 90-day notice period to avoid losses. Another situation causing revenue loss is retroactive denials, which demand refunds on claims, including older ones.

Recently, CMS released fact sheets on billing and coding to guide healthcare organizations in testing and treating COVID-19 patients. Key Updates on COVID-19 Testing Codes and Reimbursement Policies Last month, CMS developed the first HCPCS code (U0001) to bill for tests and track new virus cases. This code applies specifically to CDC testing laboratories that test patients for SARS-CoV-2. This month, CMS introduced a second HCPCS billing code (U0002). This new code allows laboratories to bill for non-CDC laboratory testing for COVID-19, increasing testing capacity and improving virus tracking. The Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System (HCPCS) is a standardized code system. It helps medical providers submit healthcare claims to Medicare and other health insurers consistently and orderly. Beginning April 1, 2020, Medicare will accept U0001 and U0002 codes for services after February 4, 2020. Local Medicare Administrative Contractors (MACs) will develop payment amounts for these newly created HCPCS codes in their jurisdictions. Until Medicare establishes national payment rates, laboratories can seek guidance from their MAC on payments for these tests before billing.

The timeline for credentialing differs depending on the payer. When you send applications to become an in-network provider, submit paperwork quickly for a faster process. Internal processes also need to take place to credential you properly. Government insurance plans like Medicaid and Medicare have a more rigorous process than private insurers like BCBS and Cigna. This is because of the additional liability government plans assume regarding their patients. Verification of each provider and practice is thorough to ensure that only qualified providers join the network. A provider interest form must be sent to the insurance provider. You should receive a response from the insurance provider in 10–15 days indicating whether they are accepting new practitioners in your area. Submit an application if the network is open. A committee meets monthly, though the meeting day varies by payer. If required documentation is missing by the committee meeting date, your application will be moved to the next meeting. With all documents in place, they will give you an answer within 30–45 days. Application accepted or denied. If approved, they will assign you an activation date. Example: If the application is accepted on July 1st, they may assign an activation date for sometime in August. The process still isn’t complete. Even after assigning the activation date, additional internal filing must be done to fully integrate the new provider into all associated networks.

This Final Rule gradually increases MIPS reporting requirements and financial impact. Here, we highlight the most relevant changes for your 2020 MIPS performance. With these insights, you can better plan for future compliance. MIPS Performance Categories In 2020, the MIPS category weights remain the same as in 2019. 2020 MIPS Categories Quality Promoting Interoperability Improvement Activities Cost 45% 25% 15% 15% MIPS Reimbursement Overview The 2020 performance year offers larger incentives due to higher thresholds and program changes. Clinicians who prioritize the program will see increased revenue. However, those who meet only the minimum requirements may face challenges. They could also encounter higher penalties in the future. Performance Threshold & Financial Impact In 2020, CMS increased the minimum performance and the exceptional bonus thresholds. Additionally, there will be more significant financial implications for MIPS-eligible clinicians who choose not to report. 2019 2020 30-point performance threshold 45-point performance threshold 75-point exceptional performance threshold 85-point exceptional performance threshold Maximum payment penalty set at -7% Maximum payment penalty set at -9% Maximum incentive prediction at +4. 69% Maximum incentive prediction at +6. 25% Note: To ensure budget neutrality, positive payment adjustment is likely to be increased or decreased by an amount called a “scaling factor. ” The amount of the scaling factor depends on the distribution of final... --- > Stay informed with the latest MIPS 2020 updates and insights. Understand the proposed rule changes & their impact on healthcare providers. - Published: 2019-08-11 - Modified: 2025-05-01 - URL: https://triumphealth.com/blogs/mips-2020/ - Categories: All MIPS 2020 Proposed Rule Schedule a Consultation MIPS 2020 Proposed Rule CMS just posted the proposed rule for MIPS 2020, which includes many ongoing changes! Meanwhile, as you try to understand the new laws for this year’s reporting, we stay current to keep you informed. The minimum threshold for 2019 MIPS reporting was 30 points to avoid penalties. However, starting in 2020, the minimum score increases to 45 points. In 2021, it is expected to reach 60 points. To obtain exceptional performance incentives for 2020, physicians need 80 points for reimbursement and 85 points in 2021. Thus, achieving the incentive becomes even more challenging as the minimum score rises. CMS may increase the data completeness threshold for quality from 60% to 70%. This change will focus on high-priority and outcome measures. Additionally, in 2020, specialties like Speech-Language Pathology, Audiology, Clinical Social Work, Chiropractic Medicine, Pulmonary, Nutrition/Dietician, and Endocrinology must be reported. The proposed weightage across all four MIPS categories in 2020 is as follows: Understanding the Impact of MIPS Penalties CMS has proposed increasing the penalty from -7% to -9% in 2020. Not reporting could cost over $8,000 per clinician yearly, based on seeing 200+ Part B patients and billing $90,000+.

Key insights for professionals navigating MIPS in cancer care. - Published: 2019-07-17 - Modified: 2025-03-13 - URL: https://triumphealth.com/blogs/how-does-mips-impact-oncology/ - Categories: All How Does MIPS Impact Oncology Schedule a Consultation How Does MIPS Impact Oncology Approximately 38. 4 percent of men and women will be diagnosed with cancer at some point in their lives. Furthermore, 7. 6 million people die from the disease. With cancer becoming more common, many patients seek the highest quality medical care. Thus, it is crucial for you as a physician to have a high Merit-based Incentive Payment System (MIPS) score. MIPS evaluates the physician’s quality of care and scores it based on a 100-point system. Additionally, MIPS can have a huge reputational and financial impact on an oncology practice, particularly in how MIPS impacts oncology. Revenue Cycle CMS considers MIPS a budget-neutral program. Eligible clinicians can receive incentives, while those who do not comply will face penalties. In 2019, the penalty was -7%, increasing to -9% in 2020. To earn high scores and receive incentives, clinicians must excel in Quality, Promoting Interoperability, Improvement Activities, and Cost categories. The weight of each category changes every year, with the 2019 breakdown below: Quality (45%) Promoting Interoperability (25%) Improvement Activities (15%) Cost (15%) Financial Implications of MIPS The complexity of MIPS reporting has increased since it became effective in 2017. Thus, practices must become well-versed in the ever-changing rules to stay ahead. Along with this complexity, financial implications have increased manifold since MIPS's inception. In 2018, the maximum incentive was 2%, and the maximum penalty was 5%. In 2019, the maximum incentive increased to 7%, and the penalty rose to... --- > Stay informed on the MIPS 2019 categories.

Quality – 45 points Weighted from 50% to 45% Many benchmarks changed Multiple measures were removed and many standard measures given a seven-point-cap Promoting Interoperability – 25 points Moved from “MU Stage 2 Modified” to “MU Stage 3” Multiple measures removed New measures added, which require significant resources and planning Improvement Activities – 15 points Some measures added CEHRT bonus removed Numerous updates to current measures and new measures added Cost – 15 points Weighted up from 10% to 15% New procedure-based measures added Will it be more challenging for small clinics to participate and achieve maximum incentives in 2019? Yes, CMS increased the exceptional performance threshold to 75-points versus 70-points in 2018. Below are some of the category updates that will make reaching the 75-point threshold more difficult, especially for smaller organizations with fewer resources: Multiple Quality measures removed Quality benchmarks updated with more difficult-to-report measures Most Promoting Interoperability bonus measures removed What is a topped-out measure? The performance on the measure is high and unvarying across the board, so meaningful distinctions and improvements can no longer be made. When a measure reaches a topped-out status, the measure could be removed unless it’s a QCDR measure which is excluded from the removal process. What is a Quality measure decile? The decile refers to the number of points that a measure can receive for a given performance. The decile can also vary... --- ---
