The Ambulatory Surgical Center Quality Reporting (ASCQR) Program promotes higher quality and more efficient health care for Medicare beneficiaries through quality of care measurement. The program requires Medicare-certified ASCs to report ten quality measures in order to avoid future Medicare payment reductions. ASCs must successfully report measures on at least 50% of claims. ASCs who do not meet reporting requirements may incur a 2% reduction to any annual increase of the ASC payment system for that year.
