Learn More about Merit-based Incentive Payment System (MIPS) Participation and the Improvement Activities Performance Category
Recently, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) (@CMSGov) posted three new resources to the Quality Payment Program website to help clinicians successfully participate in the first year of the program.
CMS encourages MIPS clinicians to visit the website to review the following new materials:
- MIPS Participation Fact Sheet: Provides information about who is eligible to participate in MIPS, and how clinicians might be able to participate voluntarily in the program.
- MIPS Improvement Activities Fact Sheet: Includes information about choosing and submitting improvement activities, reporting criteria, and scoring.
- 2017 CMS-Approved Qualified Registries: Includes the qualified registries that will be able to report data for the Quality, Advancing Care Information, and Improvement Activities performance categories in 2017.
