Quality Payment Program: New MIPS Participation 2021

Quality Payment Program: New MIPS Participation Framework for 2021 Performance Period

CMS is implementing a new participation framework for the Merit-based Incentive Payment System (MIPS) starting with the 2021 performance period, MIPS Value Pathways (MVPs). The goal of this new framework is to move away from siloed performance category measures and activities and toward an aligned set of measures and activities that are more meaningful to clinicians and patient care.

We will not immediately eliminate the current MIPS framework. We intend to develop MVPs for 2021 and beyond in collaboration with stakeholders, and we will provide opportunities for dialogue and additional feedback.
