Abstract:
In the FY 2021 IPPS/LTCH PPS proposed rule, we are not proposing to add or remove any measures from the program. For eCQM reporting, we are proposing to progressively increase the numbers of quarters of eCQM data reported, from one self-selected quarter of data to four quarters of data over a three year period, by requiring hospitals to report two quarters of data for the CY 2021 reporting period/FY 2023 payment determination, three quarters of data for the CY 2022 reporting period/FY 2024 payment determination, and four quarters of data beginning with the CY 2023 reporting period/FY 2025 payment determination and for subsequent years. We are also proposing to streamline validation processes under the Hospital IQR Program by aligning validation processes for chart-abstracted measures and eCQMs. We would do this by aligning hospital selection, including: (i) reducing the pool of hospitals randomly selected for chart-abstracted measure validation; and (ii) integrating and applying targeting criteria for eCQM validation.

Short Statement:
For the CY 2021 reporting period/FY 2023 payment determination, we anticipate the total annual burden estimate to be 1,572,443 hours at a cost of approximately $61 million. This change in burden is associated with the policy proposed in the FY 2021 IPPS/LTCH proposed rule to increase the number of reporting quarters for eCQMS from one to two quarters and the previously finalized policy in the FY 2019 IPPS Final Rule (83 FR 41478-83 FR 41484) to move the validation of HAI measures to the HACRP program that takes effect in CY 2021. The increase in reporting quarters from one quarter to two quarters between CY 2020 and CY 2021 is associated with a 2,933 hour increase in burden across IPPS and Non-IPPS hospitals. The removal of HAI measure validation from the IQR program is associated with a 43,200 hour reduction of burden. Those two changes result in a net 40,267 hour reduction in burden. The burden cost from CY 2020 to CY 2021 decreased from approximately $62.6 million to $61 million.
