Article Overview

This article explains that CMS has opened the MIPS 2021 Targeted Review period and that clinicians and other eligible participants should verify their 2021 performance-year data against their records. It is relevant to Medicare quality reporting stakeholders who need to understand the review window, the general reasons reviews may be requested, and where the process is handled within the Quality Payment Program portal.

The article is most useful for clinicians, group administrators, and quality reporting staff tracking CMS program timelines and account data accuracy.
