- IA: Improvement Activities - 15% of total MIPS score: Attest that you completed up to 2 high-weighted activities or 4 medium-weighted activities for a minimum of 90 days. Groups with 15 or fewer participants or if you are in a rural or health professional shortage area, attest that you completed 1 high-weighted or 2 medium-weighted activities for a minimum of 90 days. A group can attest to an activity when at least 50% of the clinicians in the group perform the same activity during any continuous 90-day period (or as specified in the activity description) in the same performance year. The following are some suggestions for your specialty:
- IA_CC_2 - Implementation of improvements that contribute to more timely communication of test results (medium weighted).
- IA_CC_8 - Implementation of documentation improvements for practice/process improvements(medium weighted).
- IA_CC_13 - Practice improvements for bilateral exchange of patient information (medium weighted).
- IA_PSPA_18 - Measurement and improvement at the practice and panel level (medium weighted).
- IA_PSPA_19 - Implementation of formal quality improvement methods, practice changes or other practice improvement processes (medium weighted).
