Nursing Home Open Door Forum on March 8th

The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) will hold a Skilled Nursing Facility (SNF) Open Door Forum conference call on Thurs., March 8th from 2 to 3 pm. The call agenda includes updates on the Quality Reporting Program (QRP), Payroll-Based Journal (PBJ) staffing data submissions, and the Medicare Low Volume Appeals (LVA) Settlement initiative.

These are timely updates, given the Agency’s intention to begin using PBJ data in the 5-Star system this year and the upcoming March 9th deadline for certain providers to express interest in participating in the LVA initiative.

To participate in the call on March 8th at 2 pm, dial 1-800-837-1935 and enter Conference ID 316-09-914.

Those unable to participate on March 8th may access a recording of the call that should be available on demand for three days starting Mon., March 12th. To access the recording, dial 1-855-859-2056 and enter Conference ID 316-09-914.
