NOW AVAILABLE: Updated Annual DTC and MSPB Health Equity Confidential Feedback Reports for Post-Acute Care Providers

On October 15, 2024, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) updated the two annual post-acute care (PAC) Health Equity Confidential Feedback Reports: The Discharge to Community (DTC) Health Equity Confidential Feedback Report and the Medicare Spending Per Beneficiary (MSPB) Health Equity Confidential Feedback Report. These reports are available to providers in the Home Health (HH), Inpatient Rehabilitation Facility (IRF), Long-Term Care Hospital (LTCH), and Skilled Nursing Facility (SNF) settings. The updated Fall 2024 Health Equity Confidential Reports are based on data from Calendar Year 2022-2023 for HH and from Fiscal Year 2022-2023 for IRF, LTCH, and SNF settings.

The Health Equity Confidential Feedback Reports provide insight on DTC and MSPB measure outcome differences across social risk factors.  These reports stratify these two PAC Quality Reporting Program (QRP) measure outcomes by Medicare-Medicaid dual-enrollment status (duals and non-duals), and by patient race/ethnicity (non-White and White patients). This data is meant to provide information to providers about their performance for certain populations who may have been historically disadvantaged. Providers can use the information from these reports to focus their internal quality improvement initiatives aimed at increasing opportunities for all individuals to achieve optimal health outcomes.
