MIPS Individual Reporting Options

MIPS Criteria for Individuals:
Quality - Report up to 6 quality measures (from MIPS measures and/or non-MIPS measures, or from one MIPS specialty-specific measures set), include at least one outcome measure for a minimum of calendar year, and at least 60% of the clinician’s eligible patients.
MIPS Measures for Allergists

Please know that measures availability varies based on the mechanism you choose to report to (e.g. EHR vs. Registry). Registries also offer specialty-specific measures (referred as non-MIPS measures) that will not be available when reporting via an EHR system or a non-qualified registry vendor by CMS.
