ID:217NQF:0422eMeasure ID:High Priority:Yes2021 MIPS Measure #217: Functional Status Change for Patients with Knee Impairments
A patient-reported outcome measure of risk-adjusted change in functional status for patients aged 14 years+ with knee impairments. The change in functional status (FS) is assessed using the FOTO Lower Extremity Physical Function (LEPF) patient-reported outcome measure (PROM) . The measure is adjusted to patient characteristics known to be associated with FS outcomes (risk adjusted) and used as a performance measure at the patient level, at the individual clinician level, and at the clinic level to assess quality. The measure is available as a computer adaptive test, for reduced patient burden, or a short form (static measure).
