We are now officially qualified to submit quality data to CMS on behalf of eligible professionals for 2008 PQRI reporting. Our product, Cielo Clinic, went through two rounds of review by CMS and successfully submitted data during this review.

So, what does that mean for you?

• Any Cielo Clinic customer may be able to submit data to the PQRI program for the year 2008.
  
• Cielo Clinic customers need not use extra billing codes to capture the information required by PQRI, in fact, there is no additional data to collect outside of the normal information captured by our registry.
  
• Cielo will work with customers to select the correct measures for submission.
  

There is much more to talk about regarding measures and reporting periods. Give us a call, we are happy to tell you much more about the program and how you can get started. This is a wonderful opportunity to take advantage of this pay-for-reporting program.
