Please note- CMS has discovered an error in some of the MSPB measure calculations contained in the SNF October 2017 Confidential Feedback/QM reports. The error affects the risk adjustment of the measure. CMS has corrected this issue and the data has been loaded into the Quality Improvement and Evaluation System (QIES) Assessment Submission and Processing (ASAP) system. These facility level quality measures reports are on-demand, user-requested reports in your CASPER folder in QIES. Providers should request an updated version of the report to review the corrected MSPB measure calculation.
