Performance Measures
Practices/hospitals participating in the registry will receive performance calculations for all ImageGuide performance measures. Performance will be provided at the practice/hospital level, office location level, and for each individual participating physician.
CMS Merit-Based Incentive Payment System (MIPS):
Physicians are required to report at least six measures for the quality category of MIPS. Of the six measures, at least one must be an outcome or high priority measure.

| IGR1 | IGR1 Comprehensive TTE studies reporting a measured value of LVEF AND wall motion findings with LVEF < 50% | High Priority, Efficiency and Cost/Resource Use |
| IGR2 | Parameters in stress echocardiography dobutamine testing for low flow, low gradient aortic stenosis | Process |
| IGR9 | Stress echo performance for shortness of breath per ASE guidelines | High Priority, Efficiency and Cost/Resource Use |
