Preview your performance before it is public
The “Doctors and Clinicians Preview Period” is officially open as of Tuesday, May 27, 2025. Clinicians who reported data as part of the Quality Payment Program (QPP) in 2023 can preview their 2023 performance information before it appears on the profile pages of clinicians and groups on the Medicare.gov compare tool and in the Provider Data Catalog (PDC). You can access the secure preview on the QPP website.
To learn how to preview your information, review the following resource:
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 (ZIP, 4MB).
To learn more about the 2023 QPP performance information available for preview, download the following resources on the Care Compare: Doctors and Clinicians Initiative webpage and in the 2023 Doctors and Clinicians Preview Period file (ZIP, 1MB) on the QPP Resource Library:
- Doctors and Clinician Performance Information on the Medicare.gov Compare Tool: 2023 Doctors and Clinicians Public Reporting (PDF, 445KB)
- 2023 Medicare.gov Compare Tool Clinician Star Rating Cut-offs for Clinicians and Groups (XLSX, 69KB)
Note that Accountable Care Organization (ACO) data isn’t 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 can preview their performance information in their 2023 MIPS Performance Feedback.
Remember that under the QPP, payment adjustments (whether bonuses or penalties) lag 2 years behind the reporting period, so payment adjustments from the 2023 reporting period will be experienced this year (2025). Also remember that clinicians can carry penalties/bonuses with them when they move to a new practice setting.
