The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) has reopened the calendar year (CY) 2023 Doctors and Clinicians (DAC) Preview Period, which will remain open until Thursday, August 21, 2025, at 8 p.m. ET (5 p.m. PT).
CMS reopened the Preview Period because adjustments were made resulting in the addition of 2 clinician quality measures and 17 group quality measures available for public reporting. CMS also made updates and display corrections to the CY 2023 Quality Payment Program (QPP) performance data available during the Preview Period that closed in June. More information about the additional measures can be found in the Measure Release Notes to Clinician Performance Information on the Medicare.gov Compare Tool for CY 2023 Clinicians Public Reporting (144KB) (PDF).
Even if you already reviewed your CY 2023 QPP performance information during the previous Preview Period, CMS encourages you to review your performance information again before it’s released to the public on the profile pages of clinicians and groups on the Medicare.gov compare tool and in the Provider Data Catalog. You can review this information for any changes or updates in the secure preview on the QPP website.
For more about the CY 2023 Preview Period reopening, including updated CY 2023 QPP performance information documents, visit the Care Compare: Doctors and Clinicians Initiative webpage.
Note that Accountable Care Organization (ACO) group-level data won’t be available on the QPP website during the Preview Period. Merit-based Incentive Payment System (MIPS) eligible clinicians who participate in Medicare Shared Savings Program ACOs will be able to preview their performance information in their 2023 MIPS Performance Feedback.
For more help accessing the QPP website or getting your Health Care Quality Improvement Systems (HCQIS) Access Roles and Profile (HARP) user role, email the QPP Service Center at QPP@cms.hhs.gov. To learn how to sign up for a HARP account, review the QPP Access User Guide (4MB) (ZIP).
