APM - Alternative Payment Models
MACRA repealed the Sustainable Growth Rate formula and created the Quality Payment Program. The Quality Payment Program changes the way Medicare pays clinicians and streamlines multiple quality programs. There are two options to choose from based on practice size, specialty, location or patient population. These are MIPS and APM (Advanced Alternative Payment Models). In APM, incentives are earned by achieving thresholds levels of payments or patients which will exclude you from MIPS.
