Your 2024 MIPS performance score is now available for you to review. It is very important that you review your score NOW. There have been mistakes in the past and you only have a short time to identify those issues and request a Targeted Review to get any errors corrected.
You want to make sure you get full credit for the work you did in 2024 and do not get a penalty due to an administrative or technical error. Once the Targeted Review deadline has passed, you cannot get your score corrected.
If you feel that CMS has calculated your score improperly it is possible that Registry Clearinghouse may be able to assist you with your Targeted review.

Now Available: 2024 MIPS Performance Feedback and Final Scores
The Centers for Medicare & Medicare Services (CMS) has released Merit-based Incentive Payment System (MIPS) performance feedback and final scores for the 2024 performance year.
- Your 2024 final score determines the payment adjustment you’ll receive in 2026.
- 2026 MIPS payment adjustments will be available in approximately one month.
How Do I Access Feedback?
- Sign in to the Quality Payment Program (QPP) website using your Health Care Quality Information Systems (HCQIS) Access Roles and Profile (HARP) system credentials; these are the same credentials that allowed you to submit your 2024 MIPS data.
- Click “View Feedback” on the home page and select your organization (Practice, Alternative Payment Model (APM) Entity, Virtual Group).
- Practice representatives can access individual, subgroup, and group feedback.
- Third party representatives can’t access final feedback or payment adjustment information.
If you don’t have a HARP account or QPP role, please refer to the Register for a HARP Account (re: HARP account) and Connect to an Organization (re: QPP role) documents in the QPP Access User Guide (ZIP, 4MB) and start the process now.
Performance Feedback Resources:

- 2024 MIPS Performance Feedback Supplemental Reports Guide (PDF) – Reviews the downloadable supplemental and patient-level reports for administrative claims quality and cost measures.
Now Available: 2024 Targeted Review
Review your 2024 MIPS final score on the Quality Payment Program website.
- Individual clinicians, groups, subgroups, virtual groups, APM Entities (including Shared Savings Program ACOs), designated support staff and authorized third party intermediaries may request that CMS review their MIPS final scores through a process called targeted review.
When to Request a Targeted Review
If you believe there’s an error in the calculation of your MIPS final score, you can request a targeted review now.
The targeted review period will be open for approximately 60 days. Beginning with the 2024 performance period, targeted review opens with the release of final scores and will close 30 days after the release of MIPS payment adjustments. We’ll announce the release of MIPS payment adjustments through the QPP listserv in approximately one month.
For example:
- Data were submitted under the wrong TIN or National Provider Identifier (NPI).
- You have Qualifying APM Participant (QP) status and shouldn’t receive a MIPS payment adjustment.
Performance categories weren’t automatically reweighted even though you qualify for reweighting due to extreme and uncontrollable circumstances.
Note: This isn’t a comprehensive list of circumstances. If you have questions about whether your circumstances warrant a targeted review, please contact the QPP Service Center by phone at 1-866-288-8292 (TRS: 711) or by email at QPP@cms.hhs.gov.
How to Request a Targeted Review
To access your MIPS final score and performance feedback and request a targeted review:
- Sign in using your HARP credentials (ACO-MS credentials for Shared Savings Program ACOs); these are the same credentials that allowed you to submit your 2024 MIPS data.
- Click “Targeted Review” on the left-hand navigation.
CMS generally requires documentation to support a targeted review request, which varies by circumstance. A CMS representative will contact you about providing any specific documentation required. If the targeted review request is approved and results in a scoring change, we’ll update your final score and/or associated payment adjustment (if applicable), as soon as technically feasible. Please note that targeted review decisions are final and aren’t eligible for further review.
