MIPS reporting deadline for 2017 is two weeks away!

March 15, 2018
Area(s) of Interest: MACRA Practice Management 


The deadline to submit 2017 data for Medicare’s Merit-based Incentive Payment System (MIPS) is just two weeks away. Although the group reporting deadline has passed, the deadline for all other MIPS reporting is March 31, 2018. Don’t wait until the last minute to submit your data. 


The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) has also recently launched a new MACRA data submission tool. The tool provides physicians with instant feedback on the success of their submission and the points they will receive, which ultimately determines whether they receive a bonus payment. You can submit data for the qualityimprovement activities, and advancing care information performance categories.  


Data can be submitted or updated an unlimited number of times up to the March 31 deadline. Please note that the data submission feature doesn’t have a “save” or “submit” button. Instead, it automatically updates as you enter data. You will see your initial scores by performance category, indicating that CMS has received your data. If your file doesn’t upload, you’ll get a message noting that issue.


For step-by-step instructions on how to submit MIPS data, check out this video and fact sheet.  


Questions about your participation status or MIPS data submission? Contact the Quality Payment Program Service Center at qpp@cms.hhs.gov or (866) 288-8292.
