Opportunities for Nurses to Lead Quality Efforts Under MACRA

Issue
March/April 2018

Care planning and care coordination are quality metrics for Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act (MACRA). Registered nurses in ambulatory care were surveyed to assess current care coordination practices and identify opportunities for RNs to promote quality under the law. Findings can assist in understanding the ways nurses in ambulatory care currently contribute to quality outcomes and identify additional opportunities for registered nurses to lead efforts to continue to improve quality under MACRA.
