Medicare Bonus Payment
The AGA Registry includes a module for reporting on the hepatitis C measures group as part of the CMS Physician Quality Reporting System (or Physician Quality Reporting, formerly known as the Physician Quality Reporting Initiative, or PQRI). The module is designed to provide a fast and simple way for physicians to submit data on the measures group and potentially earn an incentive payment equal to 0.5% of their total estimated Medicare Part B Physician Fee Schedule (PFS) allowed charges for covered services furnished during that same reporting period. Incentive payments have been authorized for PQRS through 2014; however, payment adjustments go into effect in 2015 for eligible professionals that do not successfully report PQRS quality measures.
