Inpatient Quality Reporting (IQR)Program
• Developed out of the Medicare Prescription
Drug, Improvement, and Modernization Act
(MMA) of 2003
• Deficit Reduction Act (DRA) of 2005 gave
new requirements
– Inpatient Prospective Payment System (IPPS) pays
hospitals an incentive for reporting measures
which is referred as the Annual Payment Update
(APU)
Intent is to encourage hospitals to submit accurate,
complete, and timely data reflecting the hospitals
ability to adopt evidence based, outcomes driven health
care delivery practices
