On August 1, 2024, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) issued a final rule (CMS-1808-F) that finalizes updates to the fiscal year (FY) 2028 Long-Term Care Hospital Quality Reporting Program (LTCH QRP) including requiring LTCH’s to collect and submit through the LTCH Continuity Assessment Record and Evaluation (CARE) Data Set (LCDS) four new assessment items in the Social Determinants of Health (SDOH) category: one item for Living Situation, two items for Food, and one item for Utilities.  CMS is also modifying the current Transportation item and extending the three day assessment window to a four day assessment window.  Finally, CMS is summarizing the feedback received on two Requests for Information (RFIs) on quality measure concepts under consideration for future LTCH QRP years and a star rating system for publicly reporting LTCH QRP measures on Care Compare.

 The final rule went on display at the Federal Register and will be available at: https://www.federalregister.gov/public-inspection
