    Add to My Bookmarks

    Excerpted from “MIPS 2024, Part 2—What’s New With PI, Improvement Activities, and Cost" (EyeNet, February 2024), posted online ahead of print.

    The improvement activities performance category is scored the same as in previous years, and the same activities are available for reporting via the IRIS Registry as in 2023 (aao.org/medicare/improvement-activities).

    Changes to IA_PSPA_16. Improve­ment activity IA_PSPA_16—which was previously named Use of decision support and standardized treatment protocol—now has a revised name, description, and validation criteria. The changes are intended to promote increased interoperability. The new activity name is Use decision support—ideally platform-agnostic, interoperable clinical decision support (CDS) tools—and standardized treatment protocols to manage workflow on the care team to meet patient needs.
