CMS announces release of 2015 Impact Assessment of Quality Measures Report-politicopro: The agency yesterday released a review of its quality reporting programs that cites broad and significant improvement from providers since 2006. From 2006 to 2012, performance in 95 percent of nearly 120 quality measures improved across seven different programs. Improvements in treating heart failure — linked to quality reporting in that area --  saved an estimated 7,000 to 10,000 lives.
