Add, update, and manage Taxpayer Identification Numbers (TINs) used for MIPS reporting and NRDR registry participation.
Quick Summary

Why TINs Matter
Physicians participating in MIPS submit quality measures and attestations to CMS using a Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN). A physician may participate individually or as part of a group practice.
The Manage Physician Group TINs page allows you to:
- Add and maintain TIN information.
- Specify effective dates for a TIN.
- Associate TINs with one or more NRDR registries.
- Ensure eligible QCDR measures are available for MIPS reporting.
Multi-Facility Example
If a physician practices at multiple facilities, separate TIN records may be required.
- Facility ID 111111 for DIR participation
- Facility ID 222222 for CTC participation
Each facility and registry combination requires its own TIN record.
