Have You Registered for Your 2026 MVP?

Have You Registered for Your 2026 MVP?

If you're planning to report a MVP this year, there's one easy step that can derail your MIPS reporting if it's overlooked: CMS requires a separate MVP registration. Many clinicians assume that participating with a qualified registry is enough, but without completing MVP registration through the Quality Payment Program (QPP) portal, you cannot report the MVP.

Proof point: CMS requires clinicians who choose to report an MVP to register through the QPP portal by 8:00 p.m. ET on November 30, 2026.

Registering is straightforward:

- Log in to your QPP account using your HARP credentials.

- Select Register or Edit an MVP Registration.

- Choose the MVP you wish to participate in and your reporting option (individual, group, subgroup, or APM Entity).

- Submit your registration and confirm that your status is marked Complete.

If you report through Registry Clearinghouse, remember that registry enrollment does not automatically complete your CMS MVP registration. Both steps are required.

Next step: If you have not yet registered, log in to the QPP portal and complete your 2026 MVP registration before the November 30, 2026, 8:00 p.m. ET deadline. If you have questions, contact the Registry Clearinghouse team for assistance before the registration window closes.
