IHS and the QPP
How does the QPP impact IHS?
The QPP will impact how the Agency participates in Medicare reporting and reimbursement.
Who should be aware of these changes?
IHS staff should be aware of the Medicare payment changes and requirements, especially staff that deal with Medicare reimbursements and reporting, including: clinicians, administrators, information technology staff, business office staff, quality improvement teams, and other stakeholders.
