COLUMBIA, Mo., March 13, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- OBERD will unveil its new "OnBoarding" platform at the 2017 American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons' (AAOS) Annual Meeting, enabling MIPS data collection and reporting for both small practices and large health systems.
The online enrollment portal (https://onboarding.oberd.com/) allows institutions ranging from single physician practices to multi-specialty healthcare systems to collect patient reported outcomes data and report for MIPS.
This product launch is timely, as CMS has just announced $100 Million for training and education support for small practices to collect and report for MIPS. A recent AAOS survey indicated 57% of practices have 10 or fewer MDs.1
"We're excited to enable robust data collection, and MIPS reporting, for any practice or institution, no matter what size," said Ali Hussam, Ph.D., CEO and Co-Founder of OBERD. "The majority of practices in the US have been underserved, and we can now help this segment effortlessly meet their MIPS reporting needs."
Using AAOS's "Instruments for Collection of Orthopaedic Quality Data" as a foundation, OBERD supplements these consensus-recommended forms by adding patient satisfaction measurement and non-surgical educational modules to advance best patient healthcare experiences.
"We have incorporated AAOS's PROM recommendations into our patient data collection tools," continued Dr. Hussam. "We endeavor to advance validatable, evidence-based healthcare, and AAOS's list of instruments aligns with that objective."
OBERD's patient data collection software, capable of capturing data for 75% of the Composite Performance Score (CPS) in 2017, manages Quality and CPIA measures with Zero Staff Intervention, allowing practices to free up their staff. OBERD's unique MIPS Performance Dashboard will allow practices to monitor performance in real-time, allowing re-calibration and optimization of CPS reimbursement computation.
OBERD will be showcasing its new "OnBoarding" tool and MIPS Reporting Strategy for all practice sizes at AAOS 2017 booth #1809. For more information or a demo, call 573.442.7101 or visit http://www.oberd.com
