As expected, CMS expanded the eligible clinician types for Year 3 of QPP. This fulfills their goal to include more providers who bill Medicare Part B. This change more than doubles the total number of EC’s required to participate in Program Year 3.
Newly eligible clinician types for 2019:
- Physical therapists
- Occupational therapists
- Qualified speech-language pathologists
- Qualified audiologists
- Clinical psychologists
- Registered dietitian or nutritional professionals
We’ll discuss the new expanded clinician types and what flexibilities are available for 2019. In addition, we’ll highlight how the expanded clinician types, along with other changes such as the opt-in option, will impact Year 3.
