MACRA and MIPS
MACRA changes how providers can be reimbursed from Medicare. MIPS is a new payment track under the Quality Payment Program where providers earn an adjustment on their Medicare payment based on performance.
APMs
An APM, or Alternative Payment Model, is a payment approach that gives added incentive payments to provide high-quality and cost-efficient care. APMs can apply to a specific clinical condition, a care episode, or a population.
Meaningful Use
Meaningful Use no longer exists as a stand-alone program, however it is a vital component of CMS's new Quality Payment Program which providers one uniform clinical quality standard.
