MIPS Participation Status Letter in the Mail

CMS is reviewing claims and letting practices know which clinicians need to take part in the Merit-based Incentive Payment System (MIPS). In late April through May, you will get a letter from your Medicare Administrative Contractor that processes Medicare Part B claims, providing the participation status of each MIPS clinician associated with your Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN). Clinicians should participate in MIPS in the 2017 transition year if they annually bill more than $30,000 in Medicare Part B allowed charges and provide care for more than 100 Part B-enrolled Medicare beneficiaries.
