Quality and Research Tools for DOs

Speaking of CAP, the AOA’s practice assessment program has been recognized as a qualified registry under the CMS Physician Quality Reporting System (PQRS) for the past few years.  Data from the 2011 CAP for PQRS shows that we had a total of 208 DOs who submitted reports to CMS. These reports came from 178 AOA members and 23 non-members who participated in the measure group option. We had seven members who participated in the individual measures option. The AOA developed the CAP for PQRS​ to provide physicians with an opportunity to receive enhanced payment from CMS and understand how patients are doing using evidence-based process and outcome measures.
