Abstract:
The purpose of the Small Health Care Provider Quality Improvement Grant (Rural Quality) Program is to provide support to rural primary care providers for implementation of quality improvement activities. The program promotes the development of an evidence-based culture and delivery of coordinated care in the primary care setting. Additional objectives of the program include improved health outcomes for patients, enhanced chronic disease management, and better engagement of patients and their caregivers. Organizations participating in the program are required to use an evidence-based quality improvement model; develop, implement and assess effectiveness of quality improvement initiatives; and use health information technology (HIT) to collect and report data. HIT may include an electronic patient registry or an electronic health record, and is a critical component for improving quality and patient outcomes. With HIT, it is possible to generate timely and meaningful data, which helps providers track and plan care.

Short Statement:
With the continuing shift in the healthcare environment towards provision of value-based care and utilization of reimbursement strategies through Centers for Medicare and Medicaid (CMS) quality reporting programs, the latest competitive cohort also aligns with this shift which has resulted in an increased number of sophisticated applicants leveraging increasingly intricate reporting methodologies for quality data collection, utilization, and analysis. As a result, the estimate of burden hours reflected in this information collection request revision is more in line with the realities of the health care landscape and the impact of the revisions on burden hours establishes a necessary renewed baseline from what was included in the previously approved measures.
