Free Support if You Report PQRS through Your EHR

Alliant Quality, the Quality Innovation Network – Quality Improvement Organization (QIN-QIO) for Georgia and North Carolina is providing free support to practices reporting to PQRS via the EHR or Data Submission Vendor (DSV). They would like to identify 35 practices in North Carolina to participate in this initiative. Ideal practices would need to report clinical quality measures (CQMs) for Controlling High Blood Pressure (NQF 0018) and Tobacco Cessation Counseling (NQF 0028) in addition to the seven CQMs needed to meet PQRS EHR reporting requirements. Any medical specialty is eligible for the support as long as they can report the two CQMs above. You must respond and sign up for this free support before July 5, 2015.   
To enroll, your practice must meet certain criteria to receive the free support, including:

1. Commit to report Controlling High Blood Pressure (NQF 0018) and Tobacco Cessation Counseling (NQF 0028) as a CQM for PQRS EHR based reporting.
2. Ensure that you are on one of the following EHRs in the table below.
3. Complete these two enrollment forms: Combined Participation Agreement and Practice and Practitioner Demographics
