August 10, 2023

The Payment Year (PY) 2024 End Stage Renal Disease Quality Incentive Program (ESRD QIP) Preview Period ends on Thursday, August 17, 2023, at 11:59 p.m., Pacific Time. Facility Viewers and Facility and Corporate Points of Contact (POCs) should review their facility’s preview Performance Score Report (PSR), through the ESRD QIP user interface (UI) in the ESRD Quality Reporting System (EQRS) prior to the end of the preview period. Additionally, POCs should submit inquiries regarding their facility’s PY 2024 preview scores and reports before the preview period concludes.

If the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) requests additional information for unresolved inquiries, POCs should promptly respond to CMS via the ESRD QIP UI in EQRS. POCs must check on the status of their inquiries via the ESRD QIP UI until the inquiries are flagged as “Closed.” POCs may receive responses to their inquiries after the preview period ends.
