hello,
I have been submitting PQRS via claims for the last 2 years and they seem to be accepting it. Since I use version 6.3.3 I cannot submit via AC. As I am a specialist most of the measures are not applicable to my practice so I cannot submit 9 measures to claim a bonus but submit 3 measures relevant to my practice. Last year I did receive a payment bonus, and 2014 was supposed to be the last year for using claims based submissions but apparently they have extended it to this year also, so I am submitting the same measures this year and we will see if they honor this
hope this helps
Bala
