This FAQ provides guidance on EPT requirements related to empanelment and patient access. It addresses common questions about assigning patients to providers or care teams, maintaining patient panels, measuring patient-side continuity, calculating third next available appointment, and preparing related milestone and KPI submissions. Practices can use this resource to clarify measure definitions, reporting expectations, workflow requirements, and documentation needs. Because the FAQ was published for the November 2024 submission cycle, practices should confirm current requirements using the latest EPT templates, measure specifications, and milestone guidance.
