On May 8, 2024, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) released the 2022 Quality Payment Program (QPP) Experience Report. The purpose of this document is to provide data specific to sleep medicine providers as it relates to Merit-based Incentive Payment System (MIPS) measures. Per the 2022 QPP experience report, 624,209 clinicians received a MIPS payment adjustment.
2022 Final Scores by Participation Option. Participation option refers to the level at which data is collected and submitted to MIPS.*
| Participation Option | Mean Final Score | Median Final Score |
|---|---|---|
| Individual | 55.65 | 75.00 |
| Group | 82.00 | 81.41 |
| Virtual Group | 90.20 | 94.02 |
| APM Entity | 93.81 | 93.95 |
