Review of CMS’s SNF QRP: Achieving a Full APU

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services provided a deep-dive on the skilled nursing facility quality reporting program on a March 26 webinar. SNF QRP: Achieving a Full APU reviewed:

• Updates to the Skilled Nursing Facility (SNF) Quality Reporting Program (QRP),
• Data submission requirements and deadlines,
• Reports that can be run in iQIES to assist providers in identifying issues that may prevent a full annual payment update (APU), and
• How and when to request reconsideration.

Providers will find the review of reporting deadlines and iQIES reports particularly helpful. The slide deck for this presentation is available here. A recording of this webinar will be uploaded in the future to the SNF QRP training page on the CMS website.
