This measure estimates hospital-level, risk-standardized payment for a HF episode of care starting with inpatient admission to a short term acute-care facility and extending 30 days post-admission for Medicare fee-for-service (FFS) patients who are 65 years of age or older with a principal discharge diagnosis of HF.
This measure estimates hospital-level, risk-standardized payments for an elective primary total THA/TKA episode of care, starting with an inpatient admission to a short-term acute care facility and extending 90 days post admission for Medicare fee-for-service (FFS) patients who are 65 years of age or older.
The 30-day Hospital-Wide, All-Cause Unplanned Readmission (HWR) Rate for the Merit-based Incentive Payment System (MIPS) Groups measure is a risk-standardized readmission rate for beneficiaries age 65 or older who were hospitalized and experienced an unplanned readmission for any cause to a short-stay acute-care hospital within 30 days of discharge. The measure attributes readmissions to up to three MIPS participating clinician groups, as identified by their Medicare Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN), and assesses each group’s readmission rate.
This measure estimates a hospital-level, risk-standardized readmission rate (RSRR) of unplanned, all-cause readmission within 30 days of discharge from an index admission with an eligible condition or procedure. The measure reports a single summary RSRR, derived from the volume-weighted results of five different models, one for each of the following specialty cohorts based on groups of discharge condition categories or procedure categories: surgery/gynecology, general medicine, cardiorespiratory, cardiovascular, and neurology.

For dual eligible beneficiaries age 18 years and older, state-level observed and risk-adjusted rates of hospital admissions for ambulatory care sensitive conditions (ACSC) per 1,000 beneficiaries for ACSC by chronic and acute conditions. This measure has three rates reported as both observed and risk-adjusted rates:
• Chronic Conditions Composite
• Acute Conditions Composite
• Total (Acute and Chronic Conditions) Composite
The Hospitalizations for Ambulatory Care Sensitive Conditions among Home and Community Based Participants measure is a risk-adjusted, state-level measure that assesses rates of hospital admissions for ambulatory care sensitive conditions per 1,000 Medicaid HCBS participants aged 18 years and older. This measure has three rates reported for potentially avoidable inpatient hospital admissions:
Number of hospital discharges from an acute care hospital (PPS or CAH) per 1000 FFS Medicare beneficiaries at the state and community level by quarter and year.
Percentage of female adolescents 13 years of age who had three doses of the human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine by their 13th birthday.
This hybrid measure estimates a hospital-level, 30-day risk-standardized mortality rate (RSMR) for patients discharged from the hospital with a principal discharge diagnosis of acute ischemic stroke. Mortality is defined as death from any cause within 30 days of the index admission date for stroke patients.
