MACRA Proposed Rule Recent Announcement Option 1 - Any data reported will allow providers to avoid a negative payment adjustment. Option 2 - Allows providers to submit data for a reduced number of days. This means their first performance period could begin later than Jan. 1 and that practice could still qualify for a small payment if it submits data on how the practice is using technology and how it's improving. Option 3 - The third option is for practices that are ready to go in 2017. Option 4 - Participate in an advanced alternative payment model such as a Medicare Shared Savings ACO. .
