The data submission period for Performance Year (PY) 2025 under the Quality Payment Program (QPP) is currently open, with a deadline of March 31, 2026, at 8:00 p.m. ET. Organizations participating in the Medicare Shared Savings Program should review and submit their quality data before the deadline, as updates or corrections will not be accepted once the submission window closes.
For PY 2025, Accountable Care Organizations (ACOs) are required to report quality data using the APP Plus quality measure set. Failure to submit any measures could result in ineligibility for shared savings or maximum shared losses.
ACOs should ensure their data—whether submitted directly or through a third party—is accurate and complete. CMS also notes that required file labels and naming conventions must follow specific formatting rules to avoid submission rejection.
Clients can access submission guidance and reporting tools through the QPP website.
