Now Available: 2020
Change Review Process
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS)
announces the availability of the 2020 Change Review Process (CRP) for
electronic clinical quality measures (eCQMs). The CRP provides eCQM users
the opportunity to review and comment on draft changes to the eCQM
specifications and supporting resources under consideration by the measure
steward. The goal of the CRP is for eCQM implementers to comment on the
potential impact of draft changes to eCQMs so CMS and measure stewards can
make improvements to meet CMS’s intent of minimizing provider and vendor
burden in the collection, capture, calculation, and reporting of eCQMs.
This latest installment of the CRP for eligible
professional/eligible clinician and eligible hospital/critical access
hospital issues will be conducted using the web-based public comment tools
on the ONC Project Tracking System eCQM Issue
Tracker during fall 2020. Note that an ONC Project Tracking
System account is required to post a question or comment. New users can create an
account via the ONC Project Tracking System website.
CRP updates regarding issues available for public comment will
be posted on the ONC Project Tracking System eCQM Issue
Tracker summary page. To subscribe to weekly CRP digest emails
containing updates on CRP activities, please email CRP@mathematica-mpr.com.
