Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services Quality Payment Program
Final Reminder: 2024 MIPS Annual Call for Quality and Cost Measures Closes Tomorrow, May 10

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) encourages you to submit quality and cost measures for consideration for future years of the Merit-based Incentive Payment System (MIPS). The MIPS Annual Call for Quality and Cost Measures process allows clinicians, professional associations, and medical societies that represent clinicians, researchers, consumer groups, and others to identify and submit measures. Currently, we’re accepting submissions for:


* Measures for the quality performance category; and
* Measures for the cost performance category.

The 2024 MIPS Annual Call for Quality and Cost Measures is from *January 31, 2024, to May 10, 2024*. Interested parties can submit quality and cost measures for CMS’ consideration by completing the required fields and submitting applicable measure specifications and all supporting data files via the CMS Measures Under Consideration Entry/Review Information Tool (MERIT) [ https://cmsmerit.cms.gov/merit/#/login ] by *8 p.m. ET tomorrow, May 10, 2024*. Candidate measures that are submitted via CMS MERIT will be considered for potential inclusion on the Measures Under Consideration (MUC) List, which is part of the pre-rulemaking process. The timeframe for candidate measures to be considered for inclusion in MIPS is a 2-year process. Only candidate quality and cost measures submitted by May 10, 2024, will be considered for inclusion in the MIPS quality or cost performance categories.

Additionally, quality measures should address measurement gaps, needs, and priority topic areas, as defined by CMS.

Also, CMS is particularly interested in quality measures for specialties not yet represented by a MIPS Value Pathway (MVP). For further information, please review the 2024 MVP Needs and Priorities (PDF) document in the MVP Development Resources (ZIP, 1MB) [ https://qpp-cm-prod-content.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/1803/MIPS%20Value%20Pathways%20(MVPs)%20Development%20Resources.zip ].

*Cost Measure Information*

CMS will consider cost measures that focus on specialties with limited episode-based cost measures, and address high-priority clinical topics for future MVP [ https://qpp.cms.gov/mips/explore-mips-value-pathways?py=2024 ] development. It’s imperative that the submission of cost measures include complete measure specifications and the required testing information.
