Pathologists Quality Registry unaffected by federal shutdown

Despite the government shutdown, operations for the Pathologists Quality Registry continue as normal.

  • Practices should submit data per their usual processes to ensure that all information is true, accurate, and complete.
  • If there are changes to processes, deadlines, or expectations, participating practices will be notified ASAP.

Regarding a recent announcement about QPP 491, Mismatch Repair or Microsatellite Instability Biomarker Testing Status, please continue to submit data as usual. 

  • Please do not modify or discontinue coding or reporting of this measure.
  • No action is needed at this time. If there is a change to the reporting process, we will notify you immediately. 

Finally, for practices whose 2024 final score was calculated incorrectly, please continue to submit for targeted reviews (PDF) following the normal process. 

  • Although it’s unclear when these requests will be processed, we do not have any information indicating that the CMS will extend the deadline.
  • So please ensure that you submit targeted review requests well in advance.
