Common use of Scoring Methodology Clause in Contracts

Scoring Methodology. The State will receive a “met” or “not met” score for each measure. If the State meets the determined benchmark or improvement goal, it will receive a “met” for that measure. If the State does not meet the benchmark or improvement goal, it will receive a “not met” for that measure. For the measures based solely on reporting (as indicated in the tables above), a “met” is based on full and accurate reporting. For each measure, receiving a “met” is contingent on the State attesting to complete and accurate reporting for that measure and subject to CMS validation of the data being reported. Measures that are ‘not met’ result in a reduction in the number of measures included in the numerator of the calculation of the measures met each year, but remain in the denominator.
