Hospice Quality Reporting: Reconsideration Period Ends Soon

CMS mailed notifications to hospices that were determined to be out of compliance with Hospice Quality Reporting requirements for CY 2015, which will affect their FY 2017 APU.  These letters were mailed on or before June 29. Hospices that receive a letter of non-compliance may submit a request for reconsideration to CMS within thirty (30) days after the date documented on the non-compliance notification letter.  CMS will not accept any requests submitted after the thirty (30) day deadline. If you receive a notice of non-compliance and would like to request a reconsideration, see the instructions in your notification letter and on the Reconsideration Requests webpage.
