CMS released new data on the quality of care provided by physician group practices, hospitals and Accountable Care Organizations, according to the CMS Blog.
The data released today also include information on Hospital Value-Based Purchasing Program 2015 payment adjustments. Specifically, data from year three of the program suggest hospitals have made improvements in care and outcomes for Medicare recipients. Compared with 1,375 hospitals expected to experience a negative change in payments, 1,714 hospitals are expected to undergo a positive change — differing from last year, according to the blog.
All data may be viewed online at Data.Medicare.gov.
