To codify the existing process for multiple data submissions for the quality and improvement activities performance categories, we are proposing to add at 414.1325(f)(1) that for multiple data submissions received in the quality and improvement activities performance categories in accordance with paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (ii) for an individual MIPS eligible clinician, group, subgroup, or virtual group from submitters in multiple organizations (for example, qualified registry, practice administrator, or EHR vendor), CMS will calculate and score each submission received and assign the highest of the scores
(ii) A manufacturer must submit the rebate reduction extension request at least 60 calendar days before the start of the second consecutive applicable period to receive consideration for a reduction in the rebate amount owed, if any, in accordance with paragraph (b)(2) of this section, except for when the initial request is made less than 60 calendar days before the end of an applicable period such that the initial rebate reduction is applied to the next applicable period rather than the applicable period in which the event that caused the severe supply chain disruption occurred or began
