About the Pathologists Quality Registry
As a pathologist, you have an ever-increasing list of responsibilities, and spending time to make sure you get paid for the value you provide—knowing that your hours would be better spent enhancing the quality of patient care—can feel a little unfair.
The College of American Pathologists’ (CAP) Pathologists Quality Registry has you covered. The CAP has invested in resources and experts in the field who work to anticipate what pathologists require to succeed in the Merit-based Incentive Payment System (MIPS). Together, we help pathologists get paid equitably for their services through advocacy, development of quality measures that optimize scores, and platforms that ease compliance.
Pathologists Need to Pay Attention to MIPS Thresholds
We understand that no practice wants to deal with payment issues—we know that’s not why you became a pathologist in the first place. Enroll in the Pathologists Quality Registry and we can help you find the MIPS reporting option that best fits your practice so you can avoid any unnecessary penalties, and get paid what you’re worth.

How Your MIPS Score Could Be Affected
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) has finalized MIPS scoring for 2026. CMS made few programmatic changes this year, but meeting the MIPS threshold was already difficult for pathologists, so avoiding a reimbursement penalty remains a challenge in 2026.
| MIPS Performance Year | 2025 | 2026 |
| MIPS Performance Threshold | 75 points | 75 points |
| Data Completeness Threshold | 75% | 75% |
| Bonus Points for Small Practices | 6 points | 6 points |
| Quality Measure Scoring floor | 0 points | 0 point |
Practices should carefully consider their 2026 reporting strategy, including utilizing the high-scoring CAP QCDR measures to maximize their scores. Contact mips@cap.org for more information.

Small Pathology Practices
MIPS category scores are weighted equally, but that might not be enough.
Large Pathology Practices
MIPS scoring floors are lower and it’s hard to meet thresholds.
