Get MACRA ready with QPP Now: AAFP enhances tools to help you avoid negative payment adjustment in 2019
By Jonathan Nelson

But don’t do it! We’re halfway through the year, which means you have only 6 months left to report at least one quality measure or activity in 2017 to avoid being penalized in 2019.
Your Academy has put together a wealth of resources to help you avoid that penalty and prepare for what’s to come.
