NCIDC PODCAST ON THE EUC EXCEPTION FOR MIPS 2024
This North Carolina Independent Dermatology Collaboration podcast explains the MIPS Extreme and Uncontrollable Circumstances (EUC) exception, which allows clinicians to request reweighting of their MIPS performance categories to 0% if they experience extreme and uncontrollable circumstances. It specifically focuses on the February 2024 cyberattack on Change Healthcare, which significantly disrupted claims processing and payments for many healthcare providers across the U.S. The NCIDC deep dive details the impact of this attack on healthcare providers, including delayed payments, increased administrative burden, and financial strain on small practices. It also outlines the steps involved in applying for the EUC exception due to the cyberattack, including the required documentation and application deadline.
