What is MACRA in MIPS 2022?
Both MACRA and MIPS are entangled deeply with each other. They both are the same as MACRA is the key legislation that covers several US healthcare programs and QPP is one among them. It has integrated the Merit-based Incentive Payment System (MIPS) as all-in-one combination of several programs like the Physician Quality Reporting System (PQRS), the Value-based Modifier (VBM), and the Medicare Electronic Health Record (EHR) program.
Through the MIPS program, value-based care is infused throughout the healthcare system. According to the Centres for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), MACRA is the implementation of a new payment system that compensates physicians for providing better care rather than seeing more patients.
Now, clinicians are free to perform the best of their services covering the four MIPS performance categories i.e., Quality, Cost, Promoting Interoperability (PI), and Improvement Activities (IA). The overall MIPS score is calculated by the quality of data submitted for all these categories during the respective performance year. However, the MIPS Quality measures have a common characteristic in that they are typically six in number for practices.
MIPS 2022 Quality Reporting Steps
Fee for Service to Pay for Performance
The Health and Human Services (HHS) department implements the overall MIPS program. Any MIPS-eligible participant can take part in four ways. One of them is MIPS reporting and data submission via any Qualified Registry. So, being a time-tested and reliable MIPS Qualified Registry, P3Care is valuable for Medicare providers with different specialties. Anyone across the board can hire us for successful MIPS reporting to CMS.
As the US healthcare system has turned from a fee-for-service payment module to a Payment-for-Performance module, a value-based reimbursement system is much appreciated for the current practices.
As health IT consultants, we believe Healthcare MIPS is well-directed and purpose-driven. However, because of the reporting burden, it cannot always be fair to clinicians. Physicians become exhausted as a result of the administrative load, which can be attributed to EHR and its burdensome list of measures. As a result, CMS has removed some of the measures from MIPS 2022 to reduce some strain.
MIPS 2022 Specialties
Since each of the MIPS performance categories has to undergo reporting for a specific period, P3 Healthcare Solutions, Ontario, CA knows what it takes to report them. We are not only a medical billing service but have undergone PQRS successfully in the past before 2017.
As a plastic surgeon, dentist, orthopedic, pediatric, family medicine physician, physical therapist, urologist, psychiatrist, ophthalmologist, nephrologist, neurologist, pain specialist, optometrist, gastroenterologist, cardiologist, chiropractic, pathologist, cardiothoracic surgeon, radiologist, physiologist, gynecologist, obstetrician, rheumatologist, endocrinologist, and public health specialist, reporting MIPS is the easiest through a MIPS Qualified Registry such as ours.
Data Validation and Verification of MIPS 2022
MIPS data submission requires you to choose one of the collection types first. With us, clinicians get to choose MIPS CQMs (Clinical Quality Measures) to report ahead. Proper validation and verification of the measures to report have to happen to score above 75. That is where the incentives are, with bonuses to follow.
As a third-party intermediary, P3 follows tradition with excellence and submits on behalf of practices. You have an option to report CMS MIPS Quality measures as an individual or a group.
CMS recognizes registries and approves them year after year based on set standards and criteria. On the whole, a MIPS consulting firm, which is also a registry, is your answer to carefree and accurate submissions. In this way, you do what you are meant to do, i.e., look after your patients.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many ways can I participate in MIPS 2022?
An eligible participant can take part in MIPS 2022 in four ways, depending on which option better suits them or they are eligible for:
1. Individual Level
2. Group Level
3. Virtual Group Level
4. MIPS APM Entity
Which factors can influence my eligibility for MIPS 2022 reporting?
Various factors can directly or indirectly influence your eligibility for MIPS reporting. Some of them are listed below:
● MIPS data submission for segment I but not for segment II
● Not being consistent with your provider type in both segments of the Eligibility Determination Period
● Change your TIN in segment II of billing Medicare Part B claims without informing MIPS
● Join up to any APM Entity in segment II of billing Medicare Part B claims
● Not exceeding LVT in QPP MIPS 2022 Eligibility Determination Period
● QP status Change (A MIPS reporting EC doesn’t require achieving QP status to be eligible in PY22)
What’s new in MIPS categories for PY22?
There are several significant changes that are subject to be effective in QPP MIPS for Performance Year 2022 but two considerable changes are in the ECs list and the changes in reporting categories.
As per the new law, now both Cost and Quality performance categories share equivalent weight in the MIPS final score formation i.e.,30% from each category. The rest of the 40% MIPS reporting score is calculated by considering 15% weightage from Improvement Activities and 25% from Interoperability Promotion.
Does CMS ensure that all MIPS-related vendors will be successful in submitting data to MIPS if I utilize a third-party vendor?
No, CMS does not assure the success of every vendor. CMS, however, makes a public list of the qualified registries (QRs) and qualified clinical data registries (QCDRs). You can review them to find the best possible option for you.
What should I do if I don’t have an Electronic Health Record?
The certified 2015 electronic health record technology (CEHRT) edition is required for medical practitioners to participate in MIPS. It is possible to get a hardship exemption though depending on (1) the reporting options given for the category and (2) whether you participate as an individual, group, or virtual group.
We primarily provide HIPAA medical billing services and MIPS consultancy, among other services. As your HIT consultant, we optimize providers’ performance for improved RCM.
