MIPS Value Pathway Registration Is Open

The registration window to report a MIPS Value Pathway (MVP) for the 2025 performance year opened on April 1 and will close on December 1, 2025, at 8 pm ET. If you are planning to report an MVP in 2025, you must register to report it.

If you choose to report both an MVP and traditional MIPS, CMS will assign you the higher of the two scores.
