Find out more about the Merit-based Incentive Payment System (MIPS) and Advanced Alternative Payment Models (APMs). Find out how you score against the four criteria and whether you are eligible for bonuses on your performance relative to a benchmark performance score.
Choosing Wisely
Choosing Wisely is an effort led by the ABIM Foundation to support and encourage physicians to avoid unnecessary medical tests, treatments, and procedures. SCAI and other medical societies have developed evidence-based recommendations to prompt conversations between patients and clinicians about the necessity and potential harm of certain interventions. Through the Quality Improvement Committee, SCAI maintains these recommendations with periodic updates as new evidence becomes available.
