The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services will host an Oct. 27 webinar on the Physician Quality Reporting System for physicians and other eligible professionals who bill for outpatient services provided in critical access hospitals using CAH Method II. During the 60-minute webinar, which begins at 11 a.m. ET, a CMS representative will answer questions on how to satisfactorily report in 2015 to avoid the PQRS adjustment in 2017. Registration for the “Virtual Office Hours” session opens Oct. 19 at 12 p.m. ET. Registrants will be asked to submit questions before the event. For more information, contact the QualityNet Help Desk at Qnetsupport@hcqis.org
