The data submission period for the 2017 Merit-based Incentive Payment System (MIPS) closed on April 3, 2018. CMS is currently in the process of reviewing all the data submitted. We would like to thank all of the clinicians who submitted their data, as well as the qualified clinical data registries, qualified registries, EHR vendors, and other organizations that submitted 2017 MIPS data on behalf of clinicians.

MIPS Preliminary Feedback Now Available

If you submitted data through the Quality Payment Program website, you are now able to review your preliminary performance feedback data. However, please keep in mind, this is not your final score or feedback.

Your final score and feedback will be available on July 1, 2018.  Between now and June 30, 2018, your score could change based on the following:

• Special Status Scoring Considerations (ex. Hospital-based Clinicians)


• All-Cause Readmission Measure for the Quality Category


• Claims Measures to include the 60-day run out period


• CAHPS for MIPS Survey Results


• Advancing Care Information Hardship Application status


• Improvement Study Participation and Results


• Creation of performance period benchmarks for Quality measures that didn’t have a historical benchmark

Your final score and feedback will be available on July 1, 2018 through the Quality Payment Program website. You will be able to access preliminary and final feedback with the same EIDM credentials that allowed you to submit and view your data during the submission period. Don’t have an EIDM account? Start the process now! Refer to the Enterprise Identity Management (EIDM) User Guide for instructions.
