CMS recently notified Skilled Nursing Facility (SNF) providers that all data for assessment-based measures required for the SNF Quality Reporting Program (QRP) in CY2017 would remain open to modifications until May 15, 2018, and that SNFs would be notified when the Q1 2017 data that was “frozen” as of August 15, 2017 would be open and subject to updates again.

Please be advised that the submission deadline for Q3 2017 data has been modified to May 15, 2018. The SNF Review and Correct Report has been updated to reflect that both Q1 and Q2 2017 are “Open”. Data for all measures for Q1 2017 have been recalculated for any assessment records that have been received since the original Q1 2017 submission deadline of August 15, 2017.  

Visit the CMS website for more information on this and to keep up on changes with CMS Quality Reporting.
