The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) has opened data submission for the 2024 performance year of the Quality Payment Program (QPP). Data can be submitted and updated until 8:00 PM ET on March 31, 2025.
Follow the steps outlined below to submit data:
- Go to the QPP sign-in page.
- Sign in using your QPP access credentials.
- Submit your data for the 2024 performance year or review the data reported on your behalf by a third party. (You can’t correct errors with your data after the submission period, so it’s important to make sure the data submitted on your behalf is accurate.)
Submission resources are available now in the QPP Resource Library.
To sign in and submit data, clinicians will need an HCQIS Authorization Roles and Profile (HARP) account and a QPP role. For help enrolling with HARP, please refer to “Step 1. Register for a HARP Account” in the Quality Payment Program Access User Guide. For help obtaining a QPP role, please refer to “Step 2. Connect to an Organization” in the Quality Payment Program Access User Guide.
CMS encourages all users with an existing HARP account to sign into the QPP website now to ensure they don’t lose access.
Note: Clinicians who are unsure about their eligibility to participate in the Merit-based Incentive Payment System (MIPS) for the 2024 performance year can check their final eligibility status using the QPP Participation Status Tool. Clinicians and groups that are opt-in eligible will need to make an election to opt-in or voluntarily report before they can submit data. (No election is required for opt-in eligible clinicians and groups that don’t want to participate in MIPS.)
As a reminder, CMS eliminated the preliminary score and preliminary category-level scores from submission. They’ll release 2024 MIPS final scores in mid-June 2025.
Please submit your 2024 MIPS performance period data early during the submission period. Early submission will allow you plenty of time for Service Center assistance if needed.
For additional information, view the MIPS Data Submission Process Demonstration (VIDEO).
