6 REG-ENT: ENT CLINICAL DATA REGISTRY REG-ENT TECHNOLOGY MAKES PARTICIPATION SIMPLE Reg-ent uses a Registry Practice Connector (RPC) to access and transfer data from your EHR to the servers supporting Reg-ent with little to no impact on physician workflow. The RPC allows Reg-ent flexibility in mapping data elements required by the registry with minimal effort on the part of the practice. MEMBERSHIP Every otolaryngologist must be a member of AAO-HNS in order to participate in Reg-ent. Non-physician providers do not need to become members of the AAO-HNS to participate in Reg-ent. FEE STRUCTURE Application fee of $250 per provider (one-time only). Annual subscription fee of $295 per provider. DEADLINE: Sign a contract by July 15, 2017, to make Reg-ent your MIPS reporting partner! Visit for more information or contact us at Reg-ent@entnet.org with any questions. To learn more visit:
