The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services incentivized providers to participate in quality reporting with payments for those that met the requirements. All AmSurg centers will receive full payment for 2014. AmSurg was able to assist centers in meeting these standards through education and support tracking of quality data code submissions for each center.
The company plans to continue monitoring compliance and CMS measure updates to ensure their centers receive the maximum amount of payment tied to quality reporting.
