Are you doing PQRS? Have you even heard of it before? PQRS is a Medicare program, and there are some things you need to know:
  1. If you do it right, you will get an incentive payment.
  2. If you don't do it soon, you will get a financial penalty.
  3. If you don't care about the money, you should still do it, because it is a way to prove that chiropractic works

By the end of this webinar you will know how this program works and how to implement it in your office.  It is really pretty simple..
