I. Background
[FR Doc. 2020–20488 Filed 9–14–20; 11:15 am]
Under the Medicare Quality Payment
Program, an eligible clinician who
participates in an Advanced Alternative
Payment Model (APM) and meets the
applicable payment amount or patient
count thresholds for a performance year
is a Qualifying APM Participant (QP) for
that year. An eligible clinician who is a
QP for a year based on their
performance in a QP Performance
Period earns a 5 percent lump sum APM
Incentive Payment that is paid in a
payment year that occurs 2 years after
the QP Performance Period. The amount
of the APM Incentive Payment is equal
to 5 percent of the estimated aggregate
payments for covered professional
services furnished by the QP during the
calendar year immediately preceding
the payment year.
II. Provisions of the Advisory
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid
Services (CMS) has identified those
eligible clinicians who earned an APM
Incentive Payment in CY 2020 based on
their CY 2018 QP status.
When CMS disbursed the CY 2020
APM Incentive Payments, CMS was
unable to verify current Medicare billing
information for some QPs and was
therefore unable to issue payment. In
order to successfully disburse the APM
Incentive Payment, CMS is requesting
assistance in identifying current
Medicare billing information for these
QPs.
CMS has compiled a list of QPs we
have identified as having unverified
billing information. These QPs, and any
others who anticipated receiving an
APM Incentive Payment but have not,
should follow the instructions to
provide CMS with updated billing
information at the following web
address: https://qpp-cm-prod-content.
