MIPS Patient Access Opt Out

WRS Health has added a communication type (Patient Portal Access) and communication method (MIPS Patient Access Opt Out) option for patients who opt-out of participation in the “Promoting Interoperability Provide Patients Electronic Access to Their Health Information” measure. The setting can be found under Patient Management > Contact Information > Communication Preference.

By selecting this preference, the MIPS eligible clinician may count that patient in the numerator so long as the patient is provided all the necessary information to subsequently access their information, obtain access through a patient-authorized representative, or otherwise opt-back-in without further follow up action required by the clinician.
