CMS Offering a Supplemental 30-Day Preview Period for Physician Compare
This is the first year that Quality Payment Program performance information will be publicly reported, and many stakeholders have asked CMS for additional time to review their data before it’s publicly reported. We’ve listened to that feedback and are offering a supplemental Physician Compare preview period. All eligible clinicians and groups should check their performance information by logging into the Quality Payment Program website.
The supplemental 30-day preview period is officially open as of March 28, 2019 and will close on April 27, 2019. We’ve included the latest 2017 performance information that is available for public reporting. Even if you previously did not have performance information to preview, you may have updated performance information to preview now. All clinicians and groups are advised to login to the Quality Payment Program website and check their most current performance information. In year two of the Quality Payment Program and moving forward, we expect a standard 30-day preview period.
Check out the resources below on how to preview your performance information:

The Deadline to Submit MIPS Year 2 (2018) Data is 5 Days Away
