This year, the payment program is making some changes to reduce the burden and make participation easier. Keeping up with the changes and being able to incorporate them into the eye care industry can be a stressful and confusing undertaking. Using the resources below, you can keep up with the changes in the MIPS program.
Online Resources To Keep Up With Changes in MIPS For The Eye Care Industry
Quality Payment Program Website
To keep up with changes in the quality payment program, you don’t have to look much farther than the Quality Payment Program website. This site provides you with up-to-date information about MIPS and APMS.
