Visit the Quality Payment Program Website to Find Webinar Resources

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) has moved Quality Payment Program (QPP) webinar resources from CMS.gov to the newly redesigned QPP Webinar Library on qpp.cms.gov. In our continuing effort to ensure the QPP website is the one-stop shop for all QPP resources, we’ve moved over all of our webinar resources to qpp.cms.gov so all of the information you need is available in one place. We’ve also made it easier for you to find the resources you’re looking for by including a search function that allows you to search for the webinars and accompanying recordings, transcripts and presentation slides by performance year, reporting track, performance category, and webinar type.
