REGISTRATION OPEN – CMS October Hospice Quality Reporting Program Forum For information about this Hurricane Ida disaster specific memo, please check the downloads section here: If you are a HQRP provider that has an extraordinary or extenuating circumstance due to Hurricane Ida, please refer to the Hospice QRP page below to find out about filing a timely extension or exemption request. In the FY 2018 Hospice Final Rule, CMS finalized the Exemption and Extension for Extraordinary Circumstances policy, (82 FR 36671). CMS does not want an extraordinary or extenuating circumstance to unduly increase provider burden, nor does CMS want to negatively impact a hospice provider’s annual payment update (APU) and compliance with HQRP requirements during this time. Īlthough the Hospice Quality Reporting Program is not granting automatic extensions or exemptions related to Hurricane Ida, CMS recognizes that some providers may have been affected by Hurricane Ida. The training materials are available under the Downloads section of the HQRP Training and Education Library.
The post-event training materials are now available for The FY 2022 Hospice Final Rule: What Hospices Need to Know! webinar that took place Tuesday, August 31, 2021.
