Free PQRI Webinar Coming From TMA, TrailBlazer

Keywords: Reimbursement  

If you have wondered whether Medicare's quality incentive program is worth your while, or if you are not sure how to participate, take a free online seminar to learn more.

TMA is partnering with TrailBlazer Health Enterprises to provide a Part B PQRI Webinar on Aug. 12 from 10:30 am to noon.

Medicare's Physician Quality Reporting Initiative (PQRI) offers a 2-percent bonus payment to Medicare physicians under this voluntary program who report a designated set of quality measures.

The Webinar will cover:

  • How the incentive program works,
  • Components of a measure,
  • Measures codes,
  • The seven measure groups,
  • What to report on the CMS-1500 claim form,
  • Feedback report and incentive payment overview, and
  • A look ahead at 2010 PQRI and e-prescribing incentives.

You also can find helpful information in the PQRI Resource Center on the TMA Web site, where we've collected links to Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services materials, such as its PQRI Tool Kit, and to other useful guides and instructions.
