RE: Physician Clinical Registry Coalition’s Comments on the Proposed 2023 Updates to the Quality Payment Program (CMS-1770-P)

Dear Administrator Brooks-LaSure:

The undersigned members of the Physician Clinical Registry Coalition (the “Coalition”) appreciate the opportunity to comment on the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services’ (“CMS’s”) proposed rule on updates to the Quality Payment Program (“QPP”) for calendar year 2023 (the “Proposed Rule”) relating to Qualified Clinical Data Registries (“QCDRs”) and Qualified Registries (“QRs”).1 The Coalition is a group of medical society-sponsored clinical data registries that collect and analyze clinical outcomes data to identify best practices and improve patient care. We are committed to advocating for policies that encourage and enable the development of clinical data registries and enhance their ability to improve quality of care through the analysis and reporting of clinical outcomes.
