The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) added new 2022 Quality Payment Program (QPP) performance information for doctors, clinicians, groups, virtual groups, and Accountable Care Organizations (ACOs) to the clinician and group profile pages on the Medicare.gov compare tool and in the Provider Data Catalog (PDC). CMS must report MIPS-eligible clinicians’ final scores and performances under each MIPS performance category, the names of eligible clinicians in Advanced Alternative Payment Models (APMs), and, to the extent feasible, the names and performance of such Advanced APMs. Performance information for doctors and clinicians is displayed using measure-level star ratings, percent performance scores, and checkmarks.
Medicare patients and caregivers can use the Medicare.gov compare tool to search for and compare doctors, clinicians, and groups enrolled in Medicare. Publicly reporting 2022 QPP performance information helps empower patients to select and access the right care from the right provider.
The Care Compare: Doctors and Clinicians Initiative page provides details about the 2022 QPP performance information that has been added to clinician and group profile pages on the Medicare.gov compare tool and in the PDC:
