What Is MACRA & MIPS?

Understanding MACRA and MIPS

The Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act (MACRA) established the Quality Payment Program (QPP), which includes the Merit-based Incentive Payment System (MIPS) as one of its participation pathways.

MIPS evaluates eligible clinicians based on performance across key categories related to quality, improvement activities, interoperability, and cost. Performance under MIPS can affect Medicare payment adjustments, making accurate reporting and performance management important for participating healthcare providers.

NexCureMD provides MACRA and MIPS consulting services that help practices understand reporting requirements, select appropriate measures, monitor performance, validate data, and prepare for successful MIPS reporting.

Why MIPS Matters for Healthcare Providers

MIPS performance can influence Medicare reimbursement and provides practices with a structured framework for measuring and improving healthcare performance.

Avoid Medicare Payment Penalties

Effective MIPS planning and reporting can help eligible clinicians avoid negative payment adjustments associated with low performance.

Improve Your MIPS Score

Identify performance gaps, optimize eligible measures, and implement strategies designed to support a stronger MIPS performance score.

Support Better Patient Care

MIPS performance measures can encourage better clinical processes, patient outcomes, care coordination, and healthcare quality.

Stay Aligned With CMS Requirements

Our MIPS compliance services help your practice understand reporting requirements and maintain organized documentation.

Performance Categories We Manage

MIPS evaluates performance across four key categories. NexCureMD helps practices understand their requirements, identify opportunities for improvement, and prepare accurate reporting.

Quality

The Quality category focuses on clinical quality and patient outcomes through applicable performance measures. Our team helps practices identify appropriate MIPS quality measures, monitor performance, and improve reporting accuracy.

Improvement Activities

Improvement Activities focus on activities that support care coordination, patient engagement, clinical processes, and practice improvement. We help practices identify eligible activities and maintain the documentation needed for reporting.

Promoting Interoperability

Promoting Interoperability focuses on the effective use of certified electronic health record technology and secure health information exchange. NexCureMD helps practices understand applicable requirements and improve their EHR-based reporting workflows.

Cost

The Cost category evaluates healthcare spending using Medicare claims data and applicable cost measures. Practices generally do not submit separate Cost data in the same way they submit Quality or Improvement Activities data; CMS calculates Cost performance using applicable claims data.

MIPS Reporting Services for Healthcare Providers

Managing MIPS reporting can require continuous attention throughout the performance year. NexCureMD provides comprehensive MIPS reporting services designed to support practices from eligibility assessment through performance monitoring and final submission.

Our Process

How We Help You Improve MIPS Performance

01

MIPS Eligibility & Data Review

We review your practice information, reporting requirements, available data, and workflow to establish an appropriate MIPS strategy.

02

Measure & Reporting Strategy

Our specialists identify relevant MIPS quality measures, Improvement Activities, and applicable reporting requirements based on your practice and reporting approach.

03

Performance Monitoring & Optimization

We monitor available performance data, identify gaps, validate information, and recommend improvements throughout the performance period.

04

MIPS Report Preparation & Submission

We prepare reporting data, review documentation, address potential issues, and support timely submission through applicable CMS-approved reporting channels.

MIPS 2026 Important Reporting Highlights

The 2026 MIPS performance year includes important reporting requirements that eligible clinicians and practices should plan for throughout the year.

For traditional MIPS reporting, Quality requires a full year of performance data for the 2026 performance period.
Eligible clinicians generally need 90 days of data for Improvement Activities, unless a specific activity has different requirements.
Promoting Interoperability generally requires 180 days of data for the 2026 performance period.
For the 2026 performance period, CMS materials indicate that applicable MIPS data submission runs through March 31, 2027.
In 2026, clinicians can have applicable reporting options including Traditional MIPS, MIPS Value Pathways (MVPs), and the APM Performance Pathway (APP), depending on their circumstances.

Plan Early

MIPS performance should be monitored throughout the performance year rather than waiting until the submission period. Early review allows practices to identify documentation, measure, and performance gaps while there is still time to address them.
Note: MIPS requirements can vary based on eligibility, reporting method, specialty, and CMS policies. Practices should verify their individual requirements for the applicable performance year.
