Dear SSR Participant,
Thank you for your continued participation in the American College of Surgeons (ACS) Surgeon Specific Registry™ (SSR).
2022 CPT and ICD-10 codes
All CPT and ICD-10 codes are properly updated in the SSR.
Participating in the SSR PII 2022 allows you to obtain CME Credits
Many SSR surgeons have already taken advantage of the new SSR Practice Improvement Initiative (SSR PII) - Quality Case Data Review and Reflection allowing surgeons to obtain Continuing Medical Education (CME) credit. You can still enroll and participate as incremental CME credit can be obtained. The SSR PII helps all surgeons to continually collect and review their relevant quality case data, including outcomes data, identifying trends, gaps, and performance improvement opportunities. Surgeons will compare their individual data (SSR Benchmarking report) to aggregated SSR and NSQIP data real-time with the purpose of enhancing the quality of surgical care. Learn more here.
