CMS Updates PDPM Grouper Software
Late last week, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) became aware of issues with the most recent Patient-Driven Payment Model (PDPM) DLL Package (V1.0002 FINAL). On Oct. 7th, a revision to the PDPM DLL Package (V1.0003 FINAL) that corrects the identified grouper discrepancies was posted, and the previous version was removed. This version corrects four bugs that were identified after the V1.0002 release. The package contains updated test files and documentation.
CMS is fielding questions regarding PDPM at pdpm@cms.hhs.gov and related information technology questions at MDSTechIssues@cms.hhs.gov.
