Care Initiatives company history timeline

1989

The AHRQ was originally established in 1989 as part of the Department of Health and Human Services.

1995

Planning began in 1995, when Catholic health leaders began to explore strengthening community health care for the future.

2003

SCIP transitioned to a mandatory publicly reported system in 2003, with participation incentivized by a Medicare payment that would otherwise be withheld for non-participation.

Several years later along the healthcare quality timeline, in 2003, the Surgical Care Improvement Program (SCIP) was established.

The use of public reporting has since then continued to expand, with the 2003 Hospital Inpatient Quality Reporting (IQR) program.

2008

In 2008, Congress enacted the Medicare Improvements for Patients and Providers Act (MIPPA) in order to expand Medicare and Medicaid access for elderly, low-income, and minority beneficiaries.

2011

On October 20, 2011, CMS released the final rules for the official implementation of Accountable Care Organizations (ACOs) under the Affordable Care Act.

2012

CMS established the Hospital Value-Based Purchasing Program (HVBP) in 2012 to reward hospitals for high-quality care.

2015

In 2015, for instance, CMS introduced the Merit-Based Incentive Payment System (MIPS) to determine payment adjustments—including both bonuses and penalties—based on quality performance.

A unique element of the PQRS was its focus on pay-for-reporting at the individual physician level [17•]. However, while participation in PQRS is currently voluntary, beginning in 2015, all providers eligible for incentive payments will be subject to penalties for failing to participate.

2019

Watch our on-demand webinar, Value-Based Care in 2019 and Beyond to learn more about how one of these recent quality improvement initiatives will continue to impact the United States healthcare industry.

CommonSpirit was created by the alignment of Catholic Health Initiatives and Dignity Health as a single ministry in early 2019.
