CMS released the 2024 IPPS proposed rule. In it they continued to emphasize health equity and provided clear indication that they are moving full throttle with eCQMs. You can see this reflected in the changes to your Inpatient Quality Reporting (IQR) program requirements.
In summary your major changes are:
- The COVID-19 Vaccination Coverage Among Healthcare Personnel is changed beginning with Q4 2023 reporting period
- Both Hybrid measures will be modified to include Medicare Advantage beneficiaries in reporting year 2024
- They are retiring the abstracted PC-01 measure beginning with calendar year 2024
- There are three new eCQMs available in 2025
- Sepsis will be included in the Hospital Value-Based Performance FY 2026
