3. Auto-populated contact information: Your contact information is auto-populated in your RIF this year. Please ensure your information is up to date.
4. Physician Practice Improvement Program (PIPP) activity: If you completed a practice improvement activity in the last 12 months, remember to report it on your annual renewal. Learn more about reporting your PPIP activity
