Physician Quality Reporting System (PQRS)
How to Get Started in the Physician Quality Reporting System (PQRS)
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) Physician Quality Reporting System (PQRS) program provides incentive payments to eligible health care professionals who satisfactorily report specific data on quality measures during the one-year 2014 reporting period (January 1–December 31). Eligible professionals that fail to satisfactorily report data on quality measures during 2014 will be subject to a 2 percent reduction to the Medicare Physician Fee Schedule (PFS) amounts for services provided during 2016.
