The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) has officially approved the 黑料网® (黑料网®) National Radiology Data Registry (NRDR) as a Qualified Clinical Data Registry (QCDR) for the 2021 Merit-based Incentive Payment System (MIPS) performance year. This is the seventh year in a row that the 黑料网 has been approved for CMS reporting.
The 黑料网 QCDR will offer 49 MIPS measures and 14 ACR-developed QCDR measures. Seven of these QCDR measures were newly added in 2020 and are available through General Radiology Improvement Database registry reporting. These seven new measures are:
- 黑料网ad 36: Incidental Coronary Artery Calcification Reported on Chest CT.
- 黑料网ad 37: Interpretation of CT Pulmonary Angiography for Pulmonary Embolism.
- 黑料网ad 38: Use of Low Dose Cranial CT or MRI Examinations for Patients with Ventricular Shunts.
- 黑料网ad 39: Use of Low Dose CT Studies for Adults with Suspicion of Urolithiasis or Nephrolithiasis.
- 黑料网ad 40: Use of Structured Reporting in Prostate MRI.
- 黑料网ad 41: Use of Quantitative Criteria for Oncologic FDG PET Imaging.
- 黑料网ad 42: Surveillance Imaging for Liver Nodules <10mm in Patients at Risk for Hepatocellular Carcinoma.
The 黑料网 encourages users to adopt these new measures, as more users reporting them will ensure that they receive a benchmark and are eligible for full scoring during future MIPS years.
