QPP Participation Status Tool Now Includes Third Snapshot of 2018 Qualifying APM Participant and MIPS APMs Data

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) updated its Quality Payment Program Participation Status Tool based on calculations from the third snapshot of data from Alternative Payment Model (APM) entities. The third snapshot includes data from Medicare Part B claims with dates of service between January 1 and August 31, 2018. As a reminder, the tool includes 2018 Qualifying APM Participant (QP) and MIPS APM status.
For those in the Medicare Shared Savings Program, a fourth snapshot date, December 31, will apply to you. It’s used for determining which eligible clinicians are participating in a MIPS APM for purposes of the APM scoring standard.
Note: If you are in participating in a MIPS APM (and do not qualify as a QP or Partial QP), you will most likely need to participate in MIPS, but will be subject to the APM Scoring Standard.
To learn more about how CMS determines QP and MIPS APM status for each snapshot, please view the QP Methodology Fact Sheet.
What Does QP Status and MIPS APM Status Mean?
If you qualify as a QP, this means you are:
  • Eligible for the 5% APM incentive bonus, and
  • Exempt from participating in MIPS.
