CMS is providing notifications to facilities that were determined to be out of compliance with the quality reporting requirements for the Inpatient Rehabilitation Facility (IRF) Quality Reporting Program (QRP), which will affect their FY 2020 Annual Increase Factor (AIF). Non-compliance notifications are in the process of being sent by the Medicare Administrative Contractors (MACs) and will be placed into facilities’ CASPER folders in QIES on July 16, 2019. Facilities that receive a letter of non-compliance may submit a request for reconsideration to CMS via email no later than 11:59 pm PST, August 15, 2019. 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 IRF Quality Reporting Reconsideration and Exception & Extension webpage.
