End-stage Renal Disease Quality Measures
The CMS administers the End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) Quality Incentive Program (QIP) to promote high-quality services in outpatient dialysis facilities treating patients with ESRD. The first of its kind Medicare program changes the way CMS pays for the treatment of patients with ESRD by linking a portion of the payment directly to the facility’s performance on quality of care measures. eSimplicity helps CMS implement services that allows CMS to collect quality measures data from dialysis facility, perform analysis, and report the comparative analysis back to the facilities.
