Becker's Healthcare May 7, 2025
On May 6, CMS suspended eight improvement activities within its 2025 rubric for determining merit pay for Medicare providers, the Merit-Based Incentive Payment System, or MIPS.
The agency plans to fully remove these improvement activities in future rulemaking:
- MIPS-eligible clinician leadership in clinical trials or community-based participatory research
- Create and implement an anti-racism plan
- Implement food insecurity and nutrition risk identification and treatment protocols
- Create and implement a plan to improve care for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer patients
- Practice improvements that engage community resources to address drivers of health
