Achieving Promoting Interoperability Requirements

Promoting interoperability (PI) is worth 25% of your total MIPS score. You must complete 180 days of promoting interoperability using a 2015-edition "Cures Update" certified EHR, like Eyefinity EHR 7.0 or later or ExamWRITER 15.3 or later.

You must report the required measures satisfactorily to receive a PI score. You may report optional measures to move your PI score closer to 100%, but the score is capped at 100%.
