To demonstrate compliance in 2013 eligible providers will continue to report from 44 measures finalized in stage 1, in the same schema that includes reporting on three core measures, and three additional measures. Eligible hospitals and critical access hospitals will continue to report the 15 measures finalized for stage 1. Of note is that National Quality Forum's (NQF) 0013 measure is a core CQM in the stage 1 final rule. In the 2014 certification criteria NQF 0013 is no longer available, and eligible providers will need to choose an alternative measure to report on. A successful CDI program may be the ideal place for organizations to track these measures and ensure that the appropriate new measure is tracked. In 2014 and beyond eligible physicians must report on nine of 64 approved CQMs. Eligible hospitals and critical access hospitals must report on 16 of 29 approved CQMs.
