This Valentine’s Day, focus on the patient population you love most — people with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities (IDD).

Don’t miss this All-New FREE 90 minute webinar The Way Forward: Living Well During COVID, featuring a panel of national experts.

The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) has released the updated Inpatient Rehabilitation Facility (IRF) Provider Preview Reports. These reports contain provider performance scores for quality measures and contain data submitted by IRFs from Quarter 3 (Q3) 2020 through Quarter 2 (Q2) 2021.

Providers have until February 25, 2022, to review their performance data. Providers can request CMS review their data during the preview period if they believe the scores are inaccurate. The final reports will be published on Care Compare and Provider Data Catalog (PDC) during the March 2022 refresh of the websites. For additional information, visit the CMS IRF QRP Public Reporting website.

The Office of Developmental Programs (ODP) is accepting feedback and comments on the proposed Fee Schedule Rates for services funded through the Consolidated, Community Living, P/FDS, and Adult Autism Waivers as well as Base-Funded programs, residential ineligible services, and the accompanying rate assumption logs.

After receiving feedback from our members, we submitted our comments today. We look forward to continued discussion with ODP regarding the development of rates that will sufficiently support services to individuals with ID/A in the community.
