- Description
- Attachment J.3- Past Performance Questionnaire Attachment J.1- Consent to Subcontract PQMM RFP The purpose of this contract is to obtain support services for the Physician Quality Reporting System (PQRS) to include maintenance and support of the measures, analytic services (including but not limited to trending performance rates etc.) and implementation support. This includes all measures within PQRS, eleven (11) CMS-owned measures (see Attachment F) and non-CMS owned measures used for reporting and performance for the PQRS Program and other quality reporting programs to include but not limited to Accountable Care Organizations (ACO), Meaningful Use (MU), or Value Based Modifier (VBM). This also includes maintaining and supporting up to six (6) additional measures (that do not have current steward ownership) if the COR requests that those additional measures be included for the PQRS program. Furthermore, the Contractor will conduct business through partnerships within CMS, across other Federal and state agencies and non-government entities to promote health information technology. The Contractor shall adhere to the Health and Human Services (HHS) and CMS quality measurement strategic approach, aligning with the over-arching three aims of the National Quality Strategy (NQS). The Contractor shall perform the requested tasks in accordance with the requirements specified below. As part of the harmonization process within CMS, the Contractor shall be familiar with the Lean Single Piece Flow (SPF) system in conjunction with scrum/agile when retooling and updating measures. Single Piece Flow refers to the Lean concept of moving one work piece (a measure or small group of measures) at a time through the development cycle rather than process an entire batch of measures before moving it to the next operation. Scrum/agile refers to a Lean methodology that is an iterative and incremental development framework for managing software projects and product or application development.
