The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services will transition the Physician Quality Reporting System to its Enterprise Identity Management System on July 13. Existing PQRS users, their data and roles will be moved to a new “PQRS Portal” portion of the CMS Enterprise Portal at portal.cms.gov, where they can then submit data, access reports and conduct other administrative and maintenance activities. For a smooth transition, they should ensure that their Individuals Authorized Access to CMS Computer Services (IACS) account is active, current and accessible. New PQRS users will need to register for an EIDM account. For additional assistance regarding IACS or EIDM, contact the QualityNet Help Desk at 866-288-8912 or qnetsupport@hcqis.org.
