Plain language summary

This study of national CMS data shows differences in quality reporting and performance of Merit-Based Incentive Payment System (MIPS)-participating radiologists by practice specialty mix. For certain practice types, radiologist-reported quality measures were commonly not radiology measures. The results support a need to expand radiology measures and to better align measure reporting with clinician specialty.
