New! GRID Startup Guide for Getting on Board
June 13, 2023
Do you want to participate in the General Radiology Improvement Database (GRID) but aren’t sure how to get started? A recently published GRID Startup Guide takes you step by step through the process.
If your facility already participates in the Dose Index Registry (DIR), keep in mind there’s no additional fee to join GRID. For facilities not participating in DIR, your GRID participation allows you to participate in other NRDR® registries with no additional fee. Learn more about the NRDR fee structure.
To learn more about the value of joining GRID, watch this video from a participant who uses the GRID Facility Comparison Report to support quality improvement initiatives. Also, for practices and physicians participating in the CMS Merit-based Incentive Payment System (MIPS) program, GRID includes MIPS-approved, radiology-specific measures.
