Hospital Quality Reporting in Hurricane Areas

CMS has announced that because of the impact of recent hurricanes, it will grant a data submission waiver to IPPS hospitals in selected counties of Louisiana and Texas that are unable to meet the submission of quality data requirements for the Reporting Hospital Quality Data for Annual Payment Update (RHQDAPU) for FY 2010. Hospitals that have questions about this process should contact their local Quality Improvement Organization.
