Eligible clinicians participating in the Quality Payment Program can begin submitting their performance data using a new system available on the QPP website. The new submission system is an improvement from earlier systems, which required EC’s to submit data on multiple websites.
The new system is now available for EC’s to submit QPP performance data for the 2017 submission period taking place January 2, 2018 to March 31, 2018.*
Here’s how:
- ECs log into the system.
- After logging in, the system will connect each EC to the Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN) associated with their National Provider Identifier (NPI).
- ECs will report data either as an individual or a group.
ECs are encouraged to log-in early and often to familiarize themselves with the system. Data can be updated at any time during the submission period. Once the submission period closes on March 31, 2018,* CMS will calculate your payment adjustment based on your last submission or submission update.
ECs who need assistance with the data submission system may contact CMS by email at qpp@cms.hhs.gov or toll free at 1-866-288-8292.
A CMS fact sheet on the QPP data submission system, including more information for clinicians participating in APMs, is available here.
*Excludes groups using the CMS Web Interface whose submission period is January 22, 2018 to March 16, 2018.
