Eye CMS’ QPP Resource Library To Keep Current
Question: I was recently put in charge of our practice’s Quality Payment Program (QPP) program and I’m wondering if there’s a single, significant resource I can use to keep me up to date on changes to the program. Arkansas Subscriber Answer: Yes. The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) provides a great resource. If you’re not checking for updates to the QPP resource library, you could be missing out on critical information. CMS adds materials and tools across the various performance years to the QPP resource library daily. For example, CMS recently added extensive zip files on criteria used to audit your Merit-Based Incentive Payment System (MIPS) files for the 2022 and 2023 performance years/2024 and 2025 payment years. Check out the latest updates at https://qpp.cms.gov/resources/resource-library.
