Due to COVID-19, CMS delayed its annual release of the Program for Evaluating Payment Patterns Electronic Report (PEPPER). The hospice PEPPER is usually released in April and the home health PEPPER is usually released in July. Even though the PHE continues, CMS believes the situation has settled enough for providers and the PEPPER contractor, RELI Group, that these reports can now be generated.
The hospice PEPPER is now scheduled for release on July 29, 2020.
The home health PEPPER is now scheduled for release on August 12, 2020.
