The QPP MIPS Performance Year begins on Jan. 1 and ends on Dec. 31 each year. The full 2019 performance period is Jan. 1- Dec. 31, 2019, but not all categories require 12 months of data collection. Performance is measured through the data clinicians report in four categories: Quality, Improvement Activities, Promoting Interoperability, and Cost.
