MHA Releases Medicare Quality Program Analyses
The Missouri Hospital Association published an analysis of the Medicare Value-Based Purchasing program and quality measure trending reports. Although critical access hospitals are exempt from the Medicare Inpatient Prospective Payment System pay-for-performance programs, the quality measure trending reports are available for CAHs that submit quality data to the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services.
Policy and analytic studies, prepared for distribution by the Hospital Industry Data Institute, are available for download to authorized users of HIDI Advantage®.
The Missouri Hospital Association is a nonprofit association in Jefferson City that represents 136 Missouri hospitals. In addition to representation and advocacy on behalf of its membership, the association offers continuing education programs on current health care topics and seeks to educate the public about health care issues.
