Check your scores soon as they will impact your 2025 Medicare payment!
Should an error be found, the deadline to request a review is Oct. 11 at 8 pm ET.
Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) also reminds MIPS participants that there is no exceptional performance adjustment for the 2023 performance year as “congressional funding for the additional adjustment for exceptional performance expired after the 2022 performance year/2024 payment year.”
To access your final score, performance feedback, and payment adjustment, log in to the Quality Payment Program (QPP) website using your HCQIS Access Roles and Profile (HARP) system credentials, the same login information you used to submit your 2023 MIPS data.
If you believe you’ve found an error in your scoring, you can request a “targeted review” by the Oct. 11 deadline, through which CMS reviews the calculation of MIPS payment adjustment factors, and which may require support documentation. While not comprehensive, CMS lists the following circumstances as examples warranting review:
- Data were submitted under the wrong tax identification number or National Provider Identifier.
- You have Qualifying APM Participant status and shouldn’t receive a MIPS payment adjustment.
- Performance categories weren’t automatically reweighted even though you qualify for reweighting due to extreme and uncontrollable circumstances.
