CMS MERIT

The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services Measures Under Consideration Entry/Review Information Tool (CMS MERIT) is a web-based system used by CMS to collect, manage, and review quality measures submitted for consideration in CMS quality reporting and value-based programs. The tool guides submitters through a structured process to provide required measure information. Each submitter has access to a dashboard to track the status of their submission and communicate with CMS through a built-in comment feature. CMS MERIT also provides a consolidated view of all measures submitted for the current review year. In addition, the tool supports federal officials, consensus-based entity multi-stakeholder groups, and other stakeholders by providing access to detailed measure information during the review and evaluation process.
