CMS Increases Price and Quality Transparency
September 19th, 2007 | Published in Uncategorized
CMS has announced plans to launch a database to compare the quality and price of health care services for Medicare beneficiaries (Health Data Management story).
The
Performance Measurement and Reporting System will be designed to offer
physician-level performance results via a Web site and other methods of
data dissemination. CMS will analyze deidentified Medicare claims to
determine performance, as well as rely on existing public performance
data from provider organizations.
