MIPS performance scores for 2017 claims data are live

Individual providers who submitted 2017 quality performance data with claims for the Merit-based Incentive Payment System can now see their scores on the Quality Payment Program website. 

Scores are calculated automatically using CMS' Quality Data Codes. However, the agency notes scores may change monthly as additional claims and adjustments are processed for up to 90 days after the new year. Individual clinicians can still submit quality data via claims until March 1. The final scores for performance year 2017 will be available after March 31.

Only individual clinicians, not groups, are eligible to use claims-based data submission. Quality data can be submitted via claims by choosing one to six measures of 74 and reporting those measures by adding Quality Data Codes to applicable claims.

Scores are visible on the QPP data submission website.
