Elements of the plan should include the following: discontinuation, resumption, and, if applicable, bridging, laboratory monitoring, and management of concomitant antithrombotic medications (such as antiplatelets and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs)). An invasive or surgical procedure is defined as a procedure in which skin or mucous membranes and connective tissue are incised, or an instrument is introduced through a natural body orifice.",

"description": "Develop, implement, update, and maintain a preparedness plan for a laboratory intended to support continued or expanded patient care during COVID-19 or another public health emergency. The plan should address how the laboratory would maintain or expand patient access to health care services to improve beneficiary health outcomes and reduce healthcare disparities. For laboratories without a preparedness plan, MIPS eligible clinicians would meet with stakeholders, record minutes, and document a preparedness plan, as needed. The laboratory must then implement the steps identified in the plan and maintain them. For laboratories with existing preparedness plans, MIPS eligible clinicians should review, revise, or update the plan as necessary to meet the needs of the current PHE, implement new procedures, and maintain the plan.Maintenance of the plan in this activity could include additional hazard assessments, drills, training, and/or developing checklists to facilitate execution of the plan. Participation in debriefings to evaluate the effectiveness of plans are additional examples of engagement in this activity.",

"description": "Implement standardized, evidence-based cardiovascular disease risk assessment and care management for a defined population in the clinician’s practice.\nThe clinician or clinician group will apply standardized risk assessment and care management to a broad, clinician-defined patient population in the practice. The population can be defined by 1) patient age and/or atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) risk factors; or 2) the constraints of the risk assessment tool (for example, the American College of Cardiology (ACC)/American Heart Association (AHA) ASCVD Risk Calculator is validated for patients over age 40).\nThe results of screening and the plan for treatment and follow up will be documented using a standardized method in the patient’s medical record. Care management plan and follow up intervals will be influenced by the degree of patient risk.\nCardiovascular care management should be defined by risk assessment and lead to the development of individualized care plans with specific goals. Shared decision making should be part of the development of every patient care plan.",
