CMS to Replay Failed Call on Readmissions Measure

CMS will replay a conference call on the new hospital-wide readmissions measure, according to an AHA News Now report.

Hospitals have until Oct. 3 to review "dry run" reports on three quality measures: hospital-wide readmissions, hip and knee replacement complications measures and hip and knee replacement readmissions. CMS has planned to hold conference calls for further education. The call suffered technical difficulties, so the call will be replayed today. The call will also include a live question-and-answer session on the new quality measure.
