CMS Announces Flexibility for MACRA 2017 Reporting

CMS announced it is offering providers several options for MACRA reporting starting January 1, 2017. This is intended to help providers select the level and pace at which they begin reporting. “During 2017, eligible physicians and other clinicians will have multiple options for participation. Choosing one of these options would ensure you do not receive a negative payment adjustment in 2019,” wrote CMS Acting Administrator Andy Slavitt.
