Quality Reporting

We offer a full range of MIPS services from simple validation of activities to fully-managed program support. We provide practice-specific guidance, including personal one-on-one training as needed for staff to aid in proper documentation and accurate reporting.

  • Meaningful Use Assistance

    Although MU has been “declared dead’ by some, many organizations are still required to attest for MU to receive full compensation. We provide hands-on assistance for all MU activities from start to finish. Our experts provide step-by-step assistance to ensure proper and consistent documentation leading to increased reporting outcomes.   

  • APM Support

    Choosing an APM such as CPC+, PCMH, MIPS, BPCI, or an ACO can be a complex decision. Our experts within these models can help you identify the differences and guide you in the selection, application, and support of these models. 

We also offer Direct Contract Consulting!

Quality Improvement

Receive assistance with health information technology that is focused on maximizing data quality improvement and excelling in areas of need via:

  • Patient portals and HIEs can ease the burden of paper processes typically utilized in forms and referrals between care settings.  OFMQ will assist each practice with the engagement of patients using promotion of the portal to enter and view their health data.   

  • OFMQ aims to help increase the use of technology for patient use by enabling patients to make smart and educated decisions regarding their healthcare. Patients feel more empowered when they are provided with the knowledge, skills, and ability to manage their own care.   OFMQ will create, discuss, and aid in implementing interventions designed to increase the use of patient engagement tools and support positive patient interactions. 

  • Providers are required now to submit data for quality reporting programs like the Uniform Data System (UDS) or the Merit-based Incentive Payment System (MIPS).  OFMQ will help verify that you have an accurate reflection of your data within the HIE, or third-party reporting software applications used by your practice and make recommendations, such as chart abstraction, for testing validity of the data. 

  • Multiple third-party reporting software systems or even an HIE can be utilized to help with data capture and retrieval. The key to success is utilizing the functionality within these systems to improve patient care and data. If you cannot find a report, then you may be able to pull the information needed with registry functionalities from your EHR. Ask yourself: what reports are you using on a daily, weekly, or even monthly basis to ensure better quality for your patients, seek out weaknesses to improve upon, or simply to just ensure efficiency in your clinic. OFMQ will produce a plan to better utilize the data your providers and staff are collecting on a regular basis.  

  • OFMQ can aid with multiple reporting programs such as: UDS, Meaningful Use or MIPS.  Let us show you the ropes and help establish a baseline for required measures.  Then, we will work together to set goals that substantiate your practice as a high performer.  Documenting in the right place is imperative to ensure proper quality measure calculation- this is what OFMQ specializes in! 

  • Do you know how to enter a second blood pressure when needed?  Are you logging referrals successfully or focusing on closing the referral loop?  Workflow enhancements taught by OFMQ can be used to improve the use of your EHR.  We will review and help modify/enhance documentation and processes to ensure proper capture of data.  Our methods will help you stay ahead of what is to come with future reporting programs.
