Impact: | For the 3 eCQMs as part of the MSSP APP Quality submission |
Description |
HI–I need clarification regarding the eCQM methodology for the APP quality submission program for the 3 clinical eCQMs below. Do we have to include self-pay or uninsured patients in the denominators for the 3 eCQM measures? Or is it restricted to patients who are insured by payers?
Thanks |

I believe that all patients who otherwise meet the IPP definition must be reported, not just Medicare eligible. Please double check with the QPP help desk to confirm that self-pay and uninsured are treated the same as non-Medicare insured patients.
