If you don’t connect your data…you can’t prioritize.
If you don’t prioritize… your interventions miss the target.
If your interventions miss the target…your revenue + outcomes don’t improve.
The cycle ends when you stop “thinking” you “know” where the priority is. #healthcarequality

Big systems can afford mistakes. Small + rural clinics can’t.
-overlooked diagnosis
- silent crippling pattern
- uncontrolled metrics
can knock you out with 1-2 max 9% penalties.
and the penalties are coming from everywhere —not just Medicare.

Once you simplify & combine all the MIPS & HEDIS measures and see where the overlaps and gaps are, the next question is: Which of these gaps matter most? This is where outcome risk measurement comes in.

Two quality measures can look identical on paper—same gap, same performance.
But when you score how bad it is, how often, awareness, effected patient volume, cost impact, and systemic reach…
only then can you see the TRUE impact quietly bleeding your clinic.

You can “improve” a metric & still get financially crushed, under value based care.
If the intervention isn’t targeting the patient population or diagnosis driving your cost + utilization…all you’re essentially doing in reality is rearranging the furniture while the house is on fire #valuebasedcare

Whether we agree with the quality programs or not. Having a large uncontrolled patient population that is consistently in the ER or hospital across several different diagnosis is still not ok.

You are absolutely getting penalized for what you don’t track and measure.
If you’re pushing mammograms while your biggest population is diabetics with high ER use… the penalty isn’t coming from where you’re looking.
It’s already in the room with us.

Or around something some marketer convinced you would bring in more patients. #practicemanagement #medicalpracticemanagement

The clinics that I have seen do this, felt like they knew exactly how they were doing.
They felt as if they would know as soon ...

If you’re just now looking to see if you’re MIPS eligible in December. The month of submission deadlines I can almost guarantee you’re probably going to be penalized.
…and you won’t know until 2027.
Good luck

MIPS is not focusing on truly helping you transition your medical practice to value based care.
They’re too busy making new rules every year to see if you’re keeping up.
