Clinical Incentive Program (CIP)
For providers registered in the Clinical Incentive Program (CIP), the functionality in the Nephrology Care Alliance (NCA) portal has moved to OneView. CIP is an outcomes-based payment program that providers can enroll in at the practice level. CIP providers have the ability to review and complete attestations and retrospective performance with patient-level outcome tracking.
Users accessing CIP through the NCA portal are asked to log into OneView or register for OneView access. Credentialed providers and their practice staff members with OneView access can click the OneView Login button. Non-credential providers and practice staff members who do not have OneView access must register.
After clicking the REGISTER button, a registration email is sent and expires 7 days from email date.
If outstanding attestations exist for the credentialed provider, the Incomplete Clinical Incentive Program Attestations task appears on the Home page under My Activities & Reminders.
The count displayed is the number of items that require review.
Click on the task, and the tab will be displayed. The CIP screen can also be accessed from Analytics > Clinical Incentive Program.
NOTE: Non-credentialed providers can only access CIP.
The Attestation Required tab is the default. The data can be sorted by clicking the arrow next to the Patients column. Hover over the Metrics and Details columns for additional details.
