The new Hospital-Level Total Hip Arthroplasty/Total Knee Arthroplasty Patient-Reported Outcome-Based Performance Measure (THA/TKA PRO-PM) is more than just a mouthful. It’s also the first time that CMS’s Inpatient Quality Reporting (IQR) Program will rely directly on patient input to calculate your performance in a specific measure.
The good news: CMS hospitals can participate in the voluntary reporting period before it is required in 2025. The urgent news: data collection for that period is already underway, so if you haven’t gotten started, now’s the time. Listen in for detailed information about what is required of this measure in the IQR Program.
Learning Objectives:
- Explain how the THA/TKA PRO-PM is calculated
- Review data submission requirements and deadlines
- Explain your options for pre- and post-op survey questions
- Discuss how CMS will calculate the final rate
