DIAGNOSTIC RADIOLOGY: Radiologists review and interpret x-rays, CT scans, MRIs, PET scans and other types of imaging tests. However, there are some imaging tests that radiologists typically do not review. Cardiologists usually review their own echocardiograms and stress tests and Ob/Gyns usually review their own ultrasounds. Like Pathologists, Radiologists often do not directly interact with patients. Typically a technician performs the scan for the radiologist to review. (more information)

MIPS is an acronym for Merit-Based Incentive Payment System. Authorized by the Medicare Access and CHIP Reaouthorization Act of 2015, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services ("CMS") developed MIPS to reward clinicians for the value of care they provide rather than the volume of care, quality over quantity. The MIPS final score determines a provider's Medicare Part B payment adjustments. MIPS also created a means for consumers to rank providers.

MIPS scores are calculated using four performance categories, quality, cost, improvement activities, and promotion of interoperability. Higher scores are better.: The highest final MIPS score is 100.

Nuclear Medicine: Correlation with Existing Imaging Studies for All Patients Undergoing Bone Scintigraphy	100%
Radiation Consideration for Adult CT: Utilization of Dose Lowering Techniques	100%
Radiology: Stenosis Measurement in Carotid Imaging Reports	100%

These are important measures that CMS tracks for each doctor. Not all doctors or medical professionals have data.
