Avoid Payment Delays, Register for iQIES Now! (1)
Posted on Monday, December 23, 2019 1:54 PM
Home health agencies (HHAs) need to obtain access to the Quality Improvement and Evaluation System (iQIES) by December 23. Failure to do so will prevent submission of Outcome and Assessment Information Set (OASIS) data, impacting the agency’s ability to comply with quality reporting requirements and the need for claims matching after January 1, 2020. Claims that cannot be matched to assessments will be returned to the HHA, delaying Medicare payment.
Beginning January 1, 2020, HHAs must use iQIES to submit patient assessments and view associated reports. They must register and verify their identity in the HCQIS Access Roles and Profile (HARP) system before logging-in to iQIES.
