Physicians can now preview their 2023 Merit-based Incentive Payment System (MIPS) performance information as it will appear later this year on the compare tool on Medicare.gov and in the Provider Data Catalog (PDC).
If errors are found on MIPS performance information, physicians may file a targeted review by June 25. Eligible physicians also now have the option to opt-out of having MIPS data publicly posted but only have until June 25 to inform the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS).
Publicly reported information includes MIPS and Qualified Clinical Data Registry quality measures, MIPS Promoting Interoperability measures and attestations, and MIPS improvement activities attestations. Access to the secure preview is available on the QPP website through Wednesday, June 25, at 7 pm Central Time.
For questions about how to access the preview or public reporting on the compare tool on Medicare.gov, contact the QPP Service Center by emailing QPP@cms.hhs.gov, submitting a QPP Service Center ticket, or calling 1-866-288-8292 (Monday–Friday, 7 am–7 pm Central Time).
For more information about MIPS, please visit these CMS and AMA webpages.
If you have any questions, please contact Adrian Uphoff, health policy analyst.
