FY 2026 SNF VBP Program December 2024 Quarterly Reports are Now Available

The December 2024 Quarterly Confidential Feedback Reports for the fiscal year (FY) 2026 Skilled Nursing Facility Value-Based Purchasing (SNF VBP) Program are now available to download via the Internet Quality Improvement and Evaluation System (iQIES) [ https://iqies.cms.gov/ ].

These reports contain facility-level results for the SNF 30-Day All-Cause Readmission Measure (SNFRM), the Skilled Nursing Facility Healthcare-Associated Infections Requiring Hospitalization (SNF HAI) measure, the Total Nurse Staffing Hours per Resident Day measure, and Total Nursing Staff Turnover measure for FY 2022, the FY 2026 SNF VBP Program baseline period.

These results will be used for the FY 2026 SNF VBP Program year scoring and incentive payment calculations that will take effect October 1, 2025. The data and results for the performance period for the FY 2026 SNF VBP Program year will be disseminated in the June 2025 Quarterly Confidential Feedback Reports.

SNFs may submit correction requests for their FY 2022 measure results up to 30 days following this report being made available, until January 9, 2025. Corrections are limited to errors made by CMS or its contractors when calculating a SNF’s measure results. SNFs must submit correction requests to SNFVBPquestions@cms.hhs.gov <SNFVBPquestions@cms.hhs.gov?subject=SNF%20VBP%20Review%20and%20Correction%20Inquiry> with the subject line “SNF VBP Review and Correction Inquiry” along with your SNF’s CMS Certification Number (CCN), SNF’s name, correction request, and reason for requesting the correction.

These reports also contain stay-level data for the SNFRM protected by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA). Any disclosure of protected health information (PHI) or personally identifiable information (PII) should only be in accordance with, and to the extent permitted by, the HIPAA Privacy and Security Rules and applicable law. When referring to the contents of the report, use the Line Number (located in the leftmost column of the ‘SNFRM Eligible Stays’ tab) of the stay in question.
