MIPS Cost Reporting

  • If a clinician or group does not meet the minimum number of cases for any of the cost measures, the cost category will be re-weighted.
  • The most common applicable cost measures are Total Per Capita Cost (TPCC) and Medicare Spending Per Beneficiary (MSPB).
  • CMS calculates a single, national benchmark for each cost measure based on the performance year. All MIPS-eligible clinicians who meet or exceed the minimum number of cases for a measure are included in the same benchmark.
