CMS Measures Inventory Tool

November 27, 2017

CMS is working to improve quality in healthcare without additional burden to those providers on the frontlines. The new CMS Measures Inventory Tool (CMIT), an interactive web-based application, provides a comprehensive list of measures under development, implemented for use, and removed from a CMS quality program or initiative. User-friendly functions allow you to find measures quickly and compile and refine sets of related measures. The tool increases transparency and can be used to identify measures across the continuum of care and will help coordinate measurement efforts across all conditions, settings, and populations. The CMIT lists each measure by program; dates of measure consideration and implementation; and measure specifications. Visit the CMS Measures Inventory webpage or more information.
