Developed by urologists for urologists, the AUA Quality (AQUA) Registry is a national Qualified Clinical Data Registry (QCDR) designed to measure, report and improve healthcare quality and patient outcomes.
Three AQUA-Developed Measures Receive CMS Benchmarks
The AUA Quality (AQUA) Registry remains a one-stop reporting solution for urologic practices participating in the Quality Payment Program (QPP) and Merit-based Incentive Payment System (MIPS). A key advantage of AQUA is its ability to support urology-specific quality measures that reflect the realities of specialty care, helping practices report more meaningfully while advancing quality improvement efforts.
MIPS Value Pathway (MVP) for Urology – Optimal Care for Patients with Urologic Conditions
MVPs streamline MIPS reporting by aligning measures to urology care—reducing administrative burden while improving benchmarking across similar practices.
