A variety of programs have been developed to address value-based care payment, including the Medicare Quality Payment Program.
Certain PTs in private practice are required to participate in the QPP program through either the Merit-Based Payment System, known as MIPS, or Advanced Alternate Payment Models, known as APMs. Additionally, other PTs and physical therapy practices may opt in to the program, enabling them to earn incentive payments and to prepare for participation in Advanced APMs.

CMS is moving toward payment based on quality rather than quantity. Alternative payment models are at the forefront.
