Understanding Measure Scoring
Under the promoting interoperability category, each measure will be scored by multiplying the performance rate (calculated from the numerator and denominator you submit) by the available points for the measure.
The Public Health and Clinical Data Exchange measures will be awarded full points if a “yes” is submitted for two registries or one “yes” and one exclusion.
Small practices (15 or fewer clinicians) qualify for an automatic reweighting of the promoting interoperability performance category to 0%. The category weight will be redistributed to the remaining performance categories unless you choose to submit promoting interoperability data.
If you fail to submit a numerator of at least one (or claim an exclusion) for any required measure, you will receive a zero for the entire promoting interoperability category.
If you claim an exclusion, the points for excluded measures will be reallocated to other measures.
