The 2024 Qualified Clinical Data Registry (QCDR) and Qualified Registry Self-Nomination Period Closes on September 1st The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) would like to remind you that the deadline of the 2024 Self-Nomination for Qualified Clinical Data Registries (QCDRs) and Qualified Registries is September 1, 2023, at 8 p.m. ET. The Self-Nomination form on the Quality Payment Program (QPP) website will lock at the deadline, and users won't be able to make additional edits. Please ensure that your 2024 Qualified Clinical Data Registry (QCDR) and Qualified Registry Self-Nomination form is complete, and then click the Submit for Review button on the QPP website before the deadline. You can only submit the Self-Nomination form for review after all required fields are complete on each tab. Each tab has a vertical progress indicator on the left side of the form that shows your progress. A green checkmark shows you've completed the tab, and the Submit for Review button becomes enabled when all the required fields are completed. Once you've selected the Submit for Review button, the Intermediary landing page will list your Self-Nomination form with the nomination status, In Self-Nomination Review. If you have submitted your Self-Nomination form, please check your submitted application periodically for any follow-up questions regarding your Self-Nomination form, QCDR measures, and/or correspondence as a high volume of notifications are sent. Please contact the MIPS QCDR/Registry Support Team (Practice Improvement and Measure Management Support (PIMMS) Team) at QCDRVendorSupport@gdit.com or RegistryVendorSupport@gdit.com, if you can't find your simplified Self-Nomination form instead of creating and submitting a new Self-Nomination form for your organization. Please ensure that a member of your organization has a QPP account with the appropriate associated role at all times and that appropriate coverage is in place if the lead self-nomination contact person is out of the office. Please note that sharing Health Care Quality Information Systems (HCQIS) Access Roles and Profile (HARP) account credentials with other users isn't permitted and is considered a security violation. Each individual user must have their own HARP account to log in to the QPP website. Unauthorized or improper use of this system is prohibited and may result in disciplinary action and/or civil and criminal penalties.
