-Today we will look at how to file a targeted review
within the CMS application QPP.
The first thing we want to do is navigate to the QPP website,
which is qpp.cms.gov.
Once we navigate here,
we're going to go to the sign-in.
Once we get to the sign-in,
I have to enter in my EIDM user ID and credentials.
If you do not have a EIDM account,
you can navigate to the CMS enterprise portal
to register for an EIDM account.
You need to enter "my user ID" as well as "my EIDM password."
Additionally, to log in,
you'll need to attest to the statement of truth,
just certifying that all of the information
that you are submitting is true, accurate, and complete.
After I click here, I'm gonna click the sign-in button,
which will take me over to the page
where I will get my multi-factor authentication code.
This will usually come via a text message or phone call,
depending on how you register within the EIDM application.
After entering my code, I am navigated to the home page,
where I'll have the ability to navigate over
to the performance feedback page.
You can see here that there are two options.
I can either navigate via the sidebar,
or I can navigate via the button in the middle of the page.
After clicking on the page,
you can see that I'm navigated over
to "my performance feedback."
To file the targeted review,
we can scroll to the bottom of the page,
where we see that there's information
on a targeted review.
This gives us details on the reason why
you might want to submit a targeted review,
as well as the deadline
for which you have to submit a targeted review by.
To request a targeted review, we can click on the link,
which will navigate us over to the Service Now portal.
My colleague will walk you through, in detail,
how to complete your application for your targeted review.
-After logging in and being directed to the QPP portal
and landing at the Service Now targeted review application,
the first question to answer is, "How did you report for 2017?"
This dropdown, you would select "MIPS individual, MIPS group,
APM individual, APM group, APM entity, or unknown."
For this demonstration, I'll be going through
a MIPS individual submission.
The first field that I want to populate will be clinician MPI.
This will auto-populate the data for the clinician first name,
clinician last name, clinician title,
and the group practice name.
This dropdown is all the associated practices
for the clinician
and forces me to make a selection
via one of the populated options or "group not listed."
The second section is submitter information.
The submitter first name, submitter last name,
relationship to the clinician, submitter e-mail.
This is going to be the primary point of contact
for this submission.
And the submitter phone number.
There is also a field for the submitter phone extension
if applicable.
The next section is the provider specialty type.
For this clinician,
the provider specialty type reported under is hand surgery.
If this is not accurate, marking this box,
you are able to make a selection and correct that at this time.
The next section is categories for review.
This section is to highlight any specific categories
you would like CMS to review.
The next section is submission method.
Checking "all that apply" will have you submitted,
area for a third-party submitter information,
and if you participated in "pick your pace,"
those options are here.
The next section is "reason for targeted review."
Here there are five sections -- submission issues,
eligibility and special status issues,
measure activity issues, general issues,
and extreme and uncontrollable circumstances.
Marking the "yes" box requires
that you provide additional detail to the specific issue.
Same for eligibility and special status.
Measure issues.
In this field, we would like to encourage you
to use any specific measure ID
that you would like to see in this review.
And in general issues.
Extreme and uncontrollable circumstances,
if applicable, marking the "yes,"
you are required to fill out more information
about the circumstance --
the circumstance description, state of practice affected,
zip code, start and end date of the circumstance.
The next section is additional information.
Here you will supply any additional information
you think may be applicable
to your targeted review application,
or an associated help desk ticket.
The next section is a certification statement.
After reading the general notice,
click in the "confirm" box.
The date is auto-populated for your submission,
and you provide a digital signature.
Once all these steps are complete,
clicking the "submit" button
takes you to a confirmation page.
Once you reach here, your targeted review application
has been received.
You should receive an e-mail confirming that
with your targeted review number
and any contact information you needed.
