The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) is now mandating the collection of patient-reported outcome measures. Systems that are working with Medicare patients must collect patient-reported outcomes starting April 2, 2024 or they'll be subject to penalties for the Fiscal Year (FY) 2028 determination. To start, it will become mandatory for hospitals under the Hospital Inpatient Quality Reporting (IQR) program to collect and report patient-reported outcomes for at least 50% of eligible total hip/total knee replacement patients. Providers are highly encouraged to participate in the Voluntary Reporting periods that already started in October 2022 in order to be well-prepared before the mandatory collection period begins. Ask us how you can automate the collection of Hospital-level Total Hip Arthroplasty and Total Knee Arthroplasty (THA/TKA) Patient Reported Outcomes Measures with SeamlessMD today.
“We have now had several patients that had their first joint replacement surgery completed at the beginning of the pandemic, and their second joint replacement in the past months with the SeamlessMD app. The feedback we have received is very compelling with patients saying their experience was 100x better with the app and the support of our NP.”
“In just seven months, we’ve been able to reduce readmissions, length of stay, and ER visits as well as receive an overwhelmingly positive response about SeamlessMD from our patients and staff. SeamlessMD provides an effective alternative to in-person care that helps us optimize the patient experience, increase operational efficiencies, and improve patient quality and safety. The implementation of the technology supports our digital health mission by supercharging our ability to stay connected with our patients, regardless of where they live.”

“SeamlessMD has been an integral part of our digital transformation for total joint replacement patients – helping us improve the patient experience through interactive patient education, remote patient monitoring and automated PRO data collection. This technology enables outstanding patient care by collecting valuable patient-reported outcomes data for continuous quality improvement.”
“It has been exciting to work with SeamlessMD to expand our strategy for patient- and family-centred care and improve the patient experience and health outcomes. With the use of myHip&Knee, patients are receiving focused education and recommendations at the right time in their recovery enabling them to better self-manage, monitor their progress and seek help when needed.”
