Measuring What Matters Forum: Making Your Quality Efforts Matter When You Don’t Make the Rules! (TH308)

Most palliative medicine clinicians practicing in community settings will be subject to the Merit-Based Incentive Payment System (MIPS). Most of the measures included in MIPS have little or no relevance to palliative care.
